ad #3: earlier today, I have tested the kernel 4.15.0-21 under lubuntu-16.04, taken from ppa:canonical-kernel-team/ppa.
So far, 3 consecutive boots without problems. I will report back after I have de - installed this kernel again, and have replaced it by what I find in xenial-proposed. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1767133 Title: linux-image-4.15.0-20-generic install after upgrade from xenial breaks Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Fix Committed Status in linux-hwe-edge package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in linux source package in Xenial: Invalid Status in linux-hwe-edge source package in Xenial: Confirmed Status in linux source package in Bionic: Fix Committed Status in linux-hwe-edge source package in Bionic: Invalid Bug description: [Impact] Some upgrades from xenial to bionic break.
