I have two onboard Intel nic and noticed the error repeatedly. I wasn't able to boot my machine at all, which I found weird because it rebooted from the upgrade without issue. I hadn't made any configuration changes to the interfaces or anything. I was finally able to consistently boot my device after a few tries in the BIOS.
I started out as unbootable with primary NIC enabled with ROM type of PXE and secondary NIC enabled with ROM type disabled. I then completely disabled the secondary NIC and was still unable to boot. So I left the secondary NIC disabled and changed the ROM type on the primary from PXE to disabled and I could magically boot again.
