Public bug reported: Tried to upgrade 16.04.4 to 18.04.1 LTS. It installed and I restarted the computer multiple times to see if it would boot to desktop, it failed half the time - all I got was a black screen.
I have no log to post since the computer was unresponsive. NOTE: Several other kernels have similar failure under this same circumstance (these are ones I've tried upgrading with): 4.15.0-33 4.15.0-36 I have Googled other kernels from the 4.15.0+ series and all have bugs saying they weren't booting. I read an article saying that 4.15+ kernel is no longer supported and urged users to use 4.16+. Here's that article: https://news.softpedia.com/news/linux-kernel-4-15-reached-end-of-life- users-urged-to-move-to-linux-4-16-now-520787.shtml Article title: Linux Kernel 4.15 Reached End of Life, Users Urged to Move to Linux 4.16 Now I suspect this is why I haven't been able to upgrade to 18.04.1 since 4.15+ kernel is being used each time I've tried. Also I've never been unable to upgrade before, now every kernel used is a bad one and won't boot my computer. ** Affects: grub-legacy-ec2 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1809598 Title: 4.15.0-43 installed but fails to boot to desktop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub-legacy-ec2/+bug/1809598/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
