[Bug 1737106] Re: attempt to read or write outside of disk

[BavarianPH]

After some research I have selected /boot with 1GB size as the GRUB.
I have had no more "outside of disk" problems.
I do have a 2TB hard drive for Windows 10, where the GRUB is located.
My ubuntu hard drive is only 1TB.
However, booting from it would require me to boot Windows as secondary to ubuntu.

Cairo-dock works great. Nemo is masrvelous.Synaptic is fast.
I have found a programs, that make ubuntu much more safe to use:
Timeshift by teejee2008 aka Tony George.
If anything fatal happens to ubuntu. That us "human" users cannot fix,
one boots to ubuntu by install disk, installs Timeshift, and restores ubuntu before the fatal flaw.
All good and well, right?

No, as soon as one thinks ubuntu is safe to use again, a new problem
arises.

Any new kernel install puts ubuntu into an infinite loop.

I am stuck with 4.13.0-22-generic kernel.
Any attempt to update to the next kernel or any other kernel results in the infinite loop.
One must reboot, choose the previous kernel, delete the newer kernel, and decline to update to 4.13.0-24-generic kernel or newer.
There is plenty of room in /boot, so that is not the problem.
GO FISH!

Thank you,
BavarianPH

Title:
  attempt to read or write outside of disk

Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 17.10 newest kernel
  I can no longer access Ubuntu.
  it ALWAYS goes to outside of disk.
  I am dual booting with Windows 10
  Windows 10 is first to boot,
  I select Ubuntu or Advanced section to boot Ubuntu.
  Have you considered an option of Windows or Ubuntu: choose, instead of making one or the other the default?
  I am so fed up with Ubuntu 17.10, that I may just give up using it ever again!
  The new Dock features are a disaster. They crash Ubuntu.
  I use cairo-dock, a much superior and far more adaptable dock than anything gnome can
  come up with.
  Every Ubuntu version you remove the users ability to repair Ubuntu without reinstalling it.
  fsck is now a nightmare to use.
  Nautilus is without a doubt the worst file explorer /  manager ever created.
  Nemo is far superior!
  Synaptic is far superior to Software Install!
  And after all this time you still have not automated the basic programs, one still has to use the terminal like back in 1970!
  17.10 is also unstable, it will all of the sudden go back to log in page for no reason.
  I report Ubuntu 17.10 basic system as a bug!!!
  Also Ubuntu is not hacker proof, newly installed Ubuntu has no real security ready, not even a firewall is activated!
  Ubuntu and Linux have given the hackers all the tools they want to hack Ubuntu easier than Windows!
