Bug Description

I did a fresh 18.04 install on an fairly old HP USFF desktop with Intel Core2 Duo E7200, 4GB RAM DDR2 , but I could not boot, as the systems hangs right before the GDM start. The keyboard and mouse are not working as the "busy" hdd LED is running. After a couple of minutes like this, the system shuts itself down. I am writing this from a newly Debian 9.4 installation, as the 18.04 was not usable at all...
