More progress: 16.04: fails 18.04: fails 18.10: fails
Although in testing 16.04 last night I noticed the older kernels are more difficult to deal with. The touchpad doesn't work and the system is not responsive enough to collect more info when then failure occurs. I will continue working backwards from 16.04 at another time, just in case there is a release that works. This is such an odd machine-specific bug that I suspected hardware failure. Although after leaving memtest running for over 24 hours on it no errors are found. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1776578 Title: Ubuntu installation stuck at "Installing the 'grub2' package..." every time.
