1. I upgraded grub2 to 2.04-1ubuntu26.13 from proposed using sudo apt install '?source-package(grub2)?installed'. It ran update-grub as postinst, and I saw the new message

GRUB_FORCE_PARTUUID is set, will attempt initrdless boot

2. I rebooted, I see message from grub saying

GRUB_FORCE_PARTUUID set, attempting initrdless boot.

before it loads the kernel.

3. After replacing kvm kernel with generic kernel, I see attempt message, but the generic kernel seems to boot fine without the initramfs, so I can't verify further.
