Hi @kaihengfeng,

I am not familiar with kernel/git bisection and was unable to do what
you asked, partly because I couldn't boot into linux/ubuntu to begin
with, and updating the kernel from 19.10 wouldn't test all the other
services that could be at play.

However, after repeated efforts or restarting my system, I was able to
finally get the live USB to get past the blocker (still not sure why it
was blocked from booting).  I wish I could explain what steps I took in
order to get to this stage, but it was truly a luck of multiple reboots
switching between safe kernel and nor kernel, enabling and disabling
secure-boot until the system corrected itself and booted from the
liveUSB.  From the successful session, I was able to install a clean
version of 20.4 LTS, but have had the same issue when trying to reboot,
that I was having with the live USB.

Because I was able to finally boot into the Live USB without any system
changes, my thought is the problem is not with the kernel (otherwise, I
would have never have gotten it to boot, regardless of how many attempts
through restart).  It consistently seems to fail during a systemd
initialization, with uuid, as if the UEFI partition is not found.
Checking fstab, everything seems to be correct.  Looking at the log
files, unfortunately, they only reflect the successful boot.  All of my
previous failed attempts to boot in 20.04 aren't present.

At this point, I am not sure how I can help to troubleshoot this issue,
but it is still an issue to consistently be able to boot into 20.04,
even though I was able to install from the live USB.

Any recommendations on what to try, will be gladly appreciated.
