Bug Description
I am reporting this using the most recent auto updated version of the kernel linux-image-
Last bootable kernel was linux-image-
The boot failures occur on two Asus S200E laptops. It does not effect my desktop.
Below is a link to a video of the failure. I boot the kernels in this order: 121, 119, 116.

I ran memory test on both laptops - no problems found.
I removed options quite and splash in hopes it might show more info but it did not help.
For what it is worth I used gunzip to test the integrity of the compressed initrd.img files. No errors from gunzip.
The disk UUID and other options I can see from Grub edit ('e') are identical.
Before 121 kernel update was release I uninstalled and reinstalled 119 but that did not help. IE: sudo apt-get --purge remove linux-image-
WORKRAROUND: Change BIOS setting DVMT Pre-Allocated Memory to be below 512M.
