Title:
  No boot after an update.

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  After an update, my computer will no longer boot. I only see a black screen.  
No grub menu. After a couple of forced restarts, the file system gets corrupt. 
This happens both on XUbuntu 18.04.4 and 19.10.
  I am not sure if it had something to do with RAM upgrade or was it just a 
coincidence that I replaced a 4GB RAM module for an 8GB module and the next day 
my computer would not boot after an update. With clean install to any version 
everything works fine. It might be of some significance to know that my Assus 
VivoBook with Ryzen3 CPU has 4GB somewhere embedded and a separate 4GB module 
in the SODIMM slot, so it reports 8GB of RAM. After upgrading the RAM module to 
8GB, it reports 12GB of RAM. I no longer had the patience to test if this would 
happen with the old 4GB module.
