fonts-dejavu is still a "recommended" but not installed package.

from this daily bionic lubuntu alternate iso: 
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/daily/20180303/bionic-alternate-amd64.iso

from /var/log/syslog of the install:

Mar  3 21:28:35 main-menu[4087]: (process:18437): update-initramfs: Generating

work around is to manually: 
apt-get install fonts-dejavu
