2020-08-07 10:52:02 bbhtt description I was trying to find some resolutions when I found this fresh debian bug report: https://www.mail-archive.com/debian-bugs-dist@lists.debian.org/msg1759183.html Is likely reproducible similarly but I can't since all my machines were hit by this bug and barely made one working and virtualbox-dkms is broken on 5.8.0-12-generic (filed that one too). This made all my fallback kernels,recovery unbootable! The solution discussed there is to remove the offending package resolvconf. I tried that in recovery mode root shell (graphical won't boot), but dpkg hangs when it tries to reload daemons but it can't asking me to restart after 20 minutes leaving with a host of broken packages but the system is finally bootable.
