Hi Simon, > a coworker and myself , both on ubuntu , have been it by the same problem
thanks for confirming the error! Could you state what HW are you running? As the bug apparently does not hit everybody. > if we try with a older kernel in the grub list it works the first time and then it does not work anymore after next reboot Ok, I can confirm this behavior. This undeterminism is what made me confused that I had fixed the bug and then it hits again. Even my "hack" with non ubuntu kernel suffers this -- first run ok, then stuck! I would strongly expect that /boot/, grub, & initramfs stay constant during reboots. So it's something in BIOS that is stateful and changes during hard-power off/resets?? > I'm interested to know how you installed the custom kernel It's from this PPA: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/damentz/liquorix/ubuntu bionic main //and as I discovered thanks to your comment, unfortunately even this kernel does not help workaround the issue. > uninstalling cryptsetup and running upgrade-grub seems to fix the problem in my case Do you use cryptsetup for encryption? I'm trying REinstalling, hope the uninstall is not the only option, as it's unapplicable to me.
