Hi Greg,

Thanks for the advice. Unfortunately, no such option appears available in
my BIOS version. I tried setting an administrator password, which does
unlock a few more options - for instance to disable Intel SGX, but that
didn't help.

It's working in Ubuntu, but that seems to be using a different way to
install altogether. I'm wondering if I could replace the kernel d-i uses
with the one from the Ubuntu installer for instance, or if there are any
options I should add to the vmlinuz line in Grub.

Cheers,
Frederik
