 Replying to [comment:6 Quozl]:

 > So the question of this ticket is ... should a corrupted ecfw.zip on a
 USB drive prevent boot in the same way that a corrupted bootfw.zip file
 does?  I think so.

 My personal feeling is that any errors should not prevent the laptop from
 booting.  Is there specific reasoning for a corrupted bootfw.zip stopping
 the boot?
