This issue affected me too, and I think I figured out what the issue is.

When the do-release upgrade script gives this prompt,
While scanning your repository information no mirror entry for the
upgrade was found. This can happen if you run an internal mirror or
if the mirror information is out of date.

Do you want to rewrite your 'sources.list' file anyway? If you choose
'Yes' here it will update all 'cosmic' to 'disco' entries.

and you say yes, it doesn't actually update all the 'cosmic' entries to
'disco'. Instead, it comments out the cosmic entries to
mirrors.digitalocean.com, leaving only a few security.ubuntu.com entries
uncommented. (I presume the ubuntu-minimal package is not available from
those sources)

I confirmed this by opening another SSH session at this prompt:
 Third party sources disabled

Some third party entries in your sources.list were disabled. You can
re-enable them after the upgrade with the 'software-properties' tool
or your package manager.

To continue please press [ENTER]
... and then I went to look at /etc/apt/sources.list and found most of the 
entries commented. I uncommented all the entries for mirrors.digitalocean.com, 
changed cosmic to disco, then went back to the original SSH session, hit enter, 
and suddenly the upgrade proceeded.
