Title:
Official 16.04 HWE 4.8 kernels do not boot (4.4 was booting)
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Status in linux source package in Yakkety:
Won't Fix
Bug description:
The machine is the same machine as in this bug report:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1616830
In mid 2016 I tested 4.8 kernels on that machine and they did not boot. (and
same errors apply to current situation)

Also Ubuntu 16.10 and newer releases do not boot anymore (as reported by a
user, I think it is due to kernel). He also reports the same errors with the
4.8 kernel.

It seems that official release kernels still have the same problems
and nothing was fixed.
There seem to be many problems with Ubuntu on Carrizo, black screens,
random freezes. I myself experienced, keyboard problems (keyboard
sometimes do not register keystrokes), touchpad works strangely,
random freeze with caps-lock blinking, low disk performance (max
1.3mbytes/sec) and much more.
I do not understand how hardware support can be getting worse and
worse, but that seems to be the case.
