Upgrade to 19.04 from 18.10 doesnt boot

[adithya jayaprakash]

Upgrade completes but shows error message that linux kernel 5.0.0-13 may not be in working state.
After completion of upgrade Ubuntu doesn't boot at all.. Just shows few blank screens and hangs.
I reverted back to my old kernel 4.18.0-17 that was in Ubuntu 18.10 and it booted fine..
Then I dleleted the new 5.0.0-13 kernel and headers.
Now Ubuntu 19.04 boots fine with old kernel.

I also tried reinstalling kernel 5.0.0-13. But faced same issue again. So again I went back to old kernel.
I noticed others too have been facing this problem.
KINDLY LOOK INTO THE BUG AND LET US KNOW THE SOLUTION

Sorry I cannot add the log files now since i do not have the said kernel. I am running Ubuntu 19.04 now with 4.18.0-17.
But I can tell you what the error message was.

Actual results:
* upgrade process ended with warning message:

    Could not install 'linux-image-5.0.0-13-generic'
    The upgrade will continue but the 'linux-image-5.0.0-13-generic' package may not be in a working state. Please consider submitting a bug report about it.

    triggers looping, abandoned

Workaround:

  Run recommended `dpkg --configure -a` before actual reboot.

I could not run the recommended workaround.. So i deleted the 5.0.0-13 and booted Ubuntu 19.04 with 4.18.0-17.

This looks to be a duplicate of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1825420. Can you please confirm?

[adithya jayaprakash (adithyajp)]

Yes.. It looks like it is same problem.
As the bug 1825420 referred to virtual ubuntu, I thought this requires separate reporting.
You can consider this duplicate of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1825420 if it doesnt matter whether it is in virtual os or ubuntu
