Bug Description
Dell XPS 15 9570. Dual boot with Windows 10. Linux was on 18.04 when attempting to upgrade to 20.04. Had previously installed kernel 4.15-0-177 which was rolled back to working kernel 4.15-0-175 due to issues already reported in Bug #1973482. Due to rollback, there was an unsigned image of kernel 4.15-0-177 in the machine, which caused the upgrade 20.04 to fail with following error. Ubuntu upgrade attempted while logged into kernel 4.15-0-175.

Thank your for your bug report. This seems to be the result of local misconfiguration, installing an unsigned kernel, and the script does exactly what it was supposed to do.
If you need help with your system, consider using askubuntu, ubuntu-users mailing list, the #ubuntu IRC channel on libera, or other user support channels.
