Ok, since I can't reproduce this locally, if you are interested / able to help with debugging it, could you please attach the core dump. Or if this contains potentially sensitive details, you could install the dbg versions of the packages and reproduce the crash and this would provide a more complete stack trace.

A few seconds into the boot, the last message displayed is "/var mounted". The system then appears to hang indefinitely. Luckily, the 'rescue' boot image allows the boot process to proceed sufficiently far to allow a root shell to be spawned. Unfortunately no log files were written during the unsuccessful attempts to boot. Spawning a 2nd root shell (# nohup getty tty5) on a 2nd virtual terminal (tty5) I was able to observe the message 'systemd freezing execution' after I closed the first root shell and resumed the boot process. Further a core file was created (belonging to /sbin/init) in the root fs --8<-- (gdb) bt #0 0x00007f16807ba187 in kill () at ../sysdeps/unix/syscall-template.S:78 #1 0x0000563b957223b7 in ??

To me that looked a bit like Bug 669702 of Gentoo (https://bugs.gentoo.org/669702) and indeed one of the (few) updates applied just prior the reboot was the update of libseccomp. I was able to circumvent the problem by disabling (commenting out) the syscall filtering requested by systemd (on my system, only /etc/systemd/system/dbus-org.freedesktop.resolve1.service needed to be modified). --- ProblemType: Bug ApportVersion: 2.20.9-0ubuntu7.15 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: MATE DistroRelease: Ubuntu 18.04 InstallationDate: Installed on 2019-03-30 (460 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS "Bionic Beaver" - Release amd64 (20190210) MachineType: Apple Inc.
