Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Reviewing your log files attached to this bug report it seems that there is a problem in the configuration of your '/etc/default/grub' file. Keep in mind than any kernel parameters should have double quotes around them like so: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash". Please review your changes to '/etc/default/grub' and try running 'sudo update-grub' again. In the event they you are able to resolve your issue please set this bug's status to Invalid. If you are not able to resolve the issue please attach the file '/etc/default/grub' to the bug report. Thanks and good luck!
