Intel microcode update definitely created same issue for me on Asus Zenbook 14 (UX433F) on 18.04.2 LTS.

Can also confirm the instructions above "add dis_ucode_ldr to the kernel command line (from GRUB if you cannot boot)" worked perfectly for temporary workaround.

This is my fourth Asus, and I've been using Linux since 1997, but I can't remember struggling as much with any other machine/distro combo as with this UX433F on Ubuntu.
