I suspected it could be something to do with this platform as I don't get errors loading iTCO_wdt on other Intel based systems. I already checked BIOS menus and did not find anything mentioning watchdog but I will try once more. Also maybe it has to do with UEFI so Legacy boot might help? In case that does not work out maybe Felipe could help? Or there is someone else at Intel I could contact as this seems to be a more general problem (I found complaints of watchdog not working on older NUC generations too)? -- Valentin
