Bug Description

I had upgraded Grub due to automatic upgrade in Discover. System failed to boot next day (first boot after install). Looked for various grub re-install options through try Linux but several failed so decided to re-install. On re-install didn't select EFI partition as machine is dual boot - didn't want to overwrite Windows FAT. Interestingly I think I did select for installation of bootloader when first installed 18.04 kubuntu so will try that next time.
