F40 Live image boot failure

[Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

With all the talk of Wayland, I followed up on the idea of downloading an  
F40 Live image and seeing if it boots on my existing hardware.

Well, it did boot on two out of three laptops that are currently running F39.

On a 2013-era Thinkpad W520 it immediately fails with a:

error: ../../grub-core/disk/efi/efidisk.c:531:invalid buffer alignment
-1112264040
error: ../../grub-core/loader/i386/efi/linux.c:258:you need to load the  
kernel first.

Press any key to continue...


Although my plans are to use dnf system-upgrade, this looks like a kernel  
issue to me. It is unclear to me whether the issue lies with the Fedora Live  
image, or if there's something on this laptops that just blows the kernel  
from high orbit, whether it'll boot from the USB stick or its existing hard  
drive.

So: would anyone care to put forward an informed opinion?
