[Bug 1851170] Re: GRUB2 version over 19 all bugs and don't want to start

[PJR Michel]

Dear Chris

Please find my explanation as a bug to the support team as requested by
you

I have downloaded a fresh 19.10 system from Ubuntu centre and loaded into
an USB ram memory
Near the end of the process, the system did not finish the upgrading, sent
errors and asked to reboot
I rebooted and the automatic updates told me to finish the updates as the
no-unstalled packages were already loaded
I had problem with the video as it was playing psychedelically in the web
browsers
I was on version 19 only
Then I reboot three times my computer while the upgrade manager asked me to
install more packages
The new version came up to 18, 31 and 32.
Then the system did not want to start the new version 32 and the I manually
started the version 19
The system started ok
But when I rebooted my computer again, all the versions show the same bug
I tried to report the bug to Ubuntu before it crashed completely but was
denied by returned e-mail it was a bug
My display manager is GDM3 rather than GNOME

I have the following message from the boot
Gave up waiting for suspend/resume device done
Gave up waiting for root file system device
Common problems:
- Boot args (cat /proc/cmdline)
- Check root delay: (did the system wait long enough?
- Missing modules (cat/proc/modules; ls /dev)
Alert UUID = c4337349-c916-4c92-bdac-bf81cb490b1a does not exist. Dropping
a shell!
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands
(initramfs)
from Linux 5.0.0.0-18, 19, 31 to 32
Then it is doing line by line turninng around on USB device settings for
ever

I am now on my dual boot with Window 10 as OS to make this report
Please tell me what to do as it is very serious and have never experimented
such problems like this one on Linux before
I have been using Linux from the University at the first lauch of the
system until today.

Title:
  GRUB2 version over 19 all bugs and don't want to start

Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  GRUB 2 does not want to start the last version upgraded .32
  Only an old version is capable to start with the current version .19 and from a Manuel selection
