Find the line starting with GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT and remove any iwlwifi.fw=... entry. Then update grub:
iwlwifi is a Linux driver for Intel Wi-Fi adapters. It requires firmware to operate, which is loaded from user space into the driver.
He opened the source code for the iwlwifi driver on GitHub. He searched for the error string exclusive . The code was checking for a specific flag in the firmware header—a flag used for debugging highly sensitive engineering prototypes. If the flag was set, the driver expected a handshake from a specialized hardware debugger.
If you'd like to or are seeing other failure codes , let me know:
That specific string — particularly iwldebugyoyobin exclusive — is from the iwlwifi driver. The real iwlwifi driver (for Intel wireless cards) typically reports errors like:
