[Bug 1364630] Re: init: Error while reading from descriptor: Broken pipe

 

After poking around I learned that the cure is to install a correction
to the Intel microcode.  That in turn requires installing the"intel-
microcode  2.20140913.1ubuntu2 source package, which is available from
Launchpad.  However, I haven't yet figured out how to actually do that.
The Archlinux folks have some information on this subject.  I didn't
realize that Linux actually has the ability to install mods to the Intel
microcode.

If any one else decides to follow through on this, please post your
findings here.
