Public bug reported: Today my Ubuntu (18.10) did an auto-upgrade to 4.18.0-14-generic, requested a reboot, and was unable to boot. After the "Starting Load/Save RF Kill Switch Status..." line it is waiting forever. (Or/and doing something behind the scenes. After a while, even the HDD indicator led go out.)
This is a permanent error, so kernel 4.18.0-14 does NOT boot. I was able to boot with kernel 4.18.0-13. (By pressing Shift when grub starts.) My configuration is "nothing fancy", possibly-except the locale (ISO-8859-2, hu and en), Xcfe4, gdm3, gnome-screensaver. I have already upgraded to the latest packages. (sudo apt-get dist-upgrade) ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: boot ** Attachment added: "Output of "journalctl -b-2" -- kernel 4.18.0-13 successfully boots" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1814555/+attachment/5235874/+files/journ03good -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1814555 Title: Ubuntu boot failure. 4.18.0-14 boot stalls.
