"Hardware Error" after power failure

My Password Is 1234@lemmy.world to Linux@lemmy.ml – 108 points –

Hello,

Today my washing machine completely broke down. My parents desperately tried to get it working, but it resulted in the circuit breakers tripping and my server (an old Dell Wyse thin client) experiencing a hard power off.

When I tried to turn it back on, I received these errors on the screen.

I ran a memtest, and it completed without any issues. I also created a disk image backup just in case.

Is there any chance of getting this machine running again, or is it only fit for utilization?

At first, I thought it was some sort of iot washing machine that stopped working due to software error lol.

I was wondering what a washing machine needed a TPM for. Better title: "machine fails to boot after power failure"

enforcing their bootloader signature obviously. can't risk having consumers prod their washing machine software, they might hurt themselves.

Me too. Read the title, looked at the picture and concluded that some people have really fancy washing machines. 😃

I assumed OP plugged himself in some hidden serial port (like cars' obd2) and the washing machine had indeed a tpm to prevent bootleg/non original spare parts.

The human mind can be the deepest well of imagination sometimes. I'm a bit too good at that o.Ô
