My situation breaking the install was a legacy install, to a disk
partition with another Ubuntu installation (16.04) maintaining the
bootloader files.  The install was done without a bootloader (select an
empty USB, and the error dialog allows you to procede without a
bootloader).  The update (after a month of successful updates) with a
kernel update 4.0.15-15), apparently got really messed up by this
situation.  There was no /var/log/installer directory, nor the
libzstd.so.1... library.  With the release, I'll just reinstall, let the
18.04 take over the bootloader,  and jump through the hoops to reinstall
grub from the  16.04 installation.  So, not every installation needs to
add a bootloader, but it's too bad it's not as simple as adding a "none"
to the choice of bootloader locations.
