@Joseph, the last line you see is: printk: bootconsole [efifb0] disabled
And system just hangs unless manually powered off. Is this correct? Then, two things you might want to try: 1. could you also try booting with "nosmp"? 2. does your system still boot normally in other ways, so that you can get into the system and dump CPU microcode info? What's the output of following command on your system? $ dmesg |grep microcode I'm suspecting your case is a duplicate of bug 1862751 or similar. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1853369 Title: [19.10] Boot hangs at "loading initial ramdisk" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1853369/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
