Bib, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better.

** Description changed:

- Boot looping since initial 14.04 install (nomodeset was the workaround I 
used).
- I recently upgraded to 16.04.3 and fell in the same issue as upgrade 
overwrote my /etc/default/grub without prompting, AFAIR.
- Digging the issue I found another possible workaround on the web... that 
works too, but using the AMD non-free driver : radeon.dpm=0
