I have a Dell Optiplex 330 workstation with Intel 82G33/G31 Express graphics. It ran Ubuntu 16.04, Ubuntu 17.10, and Ubuntu 18.04 beta2 without any issues. When Ubuntu 18.04 was released I did a clean install and it would boot to the Ubuntu logo screen and stop. I tried several kernels from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline but the issue was not resolved.

To resolve the issue I had to disable Wayland in GDM3.

sudo vi /etc/gdm3/custom.conf

Change #WaylandEnable=false to WaylandEnable=false and reboot
