correct

The boot failure occurs on step 5. This is reproducible.
>Can you boot to a command line using the recovery option
I tried to boot holding the left shift key but I did not get grub2. I did get
4 red dots instead of 3 on the Ubuntu splash screen. Do you have another
procedure to suggest?
>Try this as a workaround: edit /etc/gdm3/custom.conf ...
The system is unusable.
When doing a fresh install from a USB key to reproduce this bug, you
should be offered to erase or install alongside the existing OS. In
this case, you are ONLY offered to erase. Curious.

Title:
Ubuntu 19.04 system update causes boot failure
Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
***
*** Please reassign bug to proper package
***
On Jun 3 2019, the system update corrupts the system. It will not
boot. It hangs on the 3rd red dot of the Ubuntu splash screen. The
remaining 2 dots are white. You never get the terminal screen with
green [ ok] status lines.
A complete new install works fine. When you do a system update, you
get the corruption and boot failure.
