Bug Description
I left the upgrade running while I had dinner. When I returned, the system had frozen. It was displaying a corrupted image of the NVIDIA logo. I rebooted but the system froze at the Ubuntu logo with the progress bar empty. I rebooted again and removed 'splash' and 'quiet' from the kernel command; the boot process hung at 'waiting for root filesystem'. After a few minutes it times out, dropping me to the initramfs shell, where it is revealed that it can't find /dev/disks/

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Does anything show up in '/dev/disk/ by-uuid/ '? Thanks in advance.
