20.04.1 - strange, one off, boot failure

Hi,

When booting a lenovo T420, it spent about 17+ minutes showing the spinning
Ubuntu logo. I did a hard shutdown and after that it booted OK.

So I've edited /etc/default/grub from this...
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"
to this
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=""
and then ran sudo update-grub

It boots slower, now - because it is now showing boot progress messages -
but at least if it fails again I'll get a better idea of what is going on.

HTH,

Ian
