Bug Description
Ubuntu 19.04
Problem:
Booting from live media OR installed ubuntu fails with a blank, black screen and total system hang.
How to reproduce:
Using AMDGpu driver and AMD 4th Gen GCN GPU, try to boot Ubuntu 19.04 (or 18.04)
Resolution:
Manually updating kernel to 5.1 and adding the "amdgpu.dc=0" kernel boot parameter seems to fix the problem.

Please also test with the default 19.04 kernel (ideally the installer, too), can you get graphical output there using amdgpu.dc=0 ?
While running from the installed system, if possible using the default (after updates) kernel image, with amdgpu.dc=0 set, please run:
