This bug started affecting me a few weeks ago. It seems to happen
whenever a new kernel version is pushed out.
This time, what Ben did in #75 -- downgrading grub to
2.02+dfsg1-12ubuntu2.1 -- was the only thing that fixed it for me. I
cannot remember exactly what fixed it for me the first time, but
I haven't noticed the intel-microcode update of 2020/12/11
Know, with intel-microcode 3.20201110.0ubuntu0.20.04.2 focal package, my
computer start normally and without any tweak ! Greaaat !
Thanks a lot to anybody make it happen.

This is to confirm manually downgrading the grub packages to those found

The problem still manifests with 5.3.0-24-generic, in addition to the
