[Bug 1778113] [NEW] After install in UEFI mode, grub goes to the Minimal BASH-like mode

[Leonardo Müller]

Public bug reported:

After installing the Xubuntu Cosmic daily on a QEMU/KVM guest in UEFI
mode, on reboot grub2 fails to boot and shows the following message:

GNU GRUB  version 2.02

   Minimal BASH-like line editing is supported. For the first word, TAB   
   lists possible command completions. Anywhere else TAB lists possible   
   device or file completions.                                            


grub> 

I had to use the following commands to boot Xubuntu:

grub> set root=(hd0,gpt2)
grub> linux /vmlinuz root=/dev/sda2
grub> initrd /initrd.img
grub> boot
