Kubuntu 19.04, updated as of May 17th.
This morning I ran updates on my Kubuntu installation, and after reboot, grub drops me to grub shell without giving me my grub menu. This has happened to me a few times over the last few months, and I end up just re-installing because I gave up trying to figure out how to fix it. But I'm at this point again, and I would like to figure out what's causing this.
Hardware:
AMD Ryzen 2600X
16GB Ram
Asus B450 Motherboard
1x Samsung Evo 500 GB SSD (Primary drive)
1x Seagate 1TB HDD (Storage Drive)
No other OS's
Manually entering the following at the grub screen allows my system to boot (obfuscated the UUID) and function normally:
> insmod gzio
> insmod part_gpt
> insmod btrfs
>linux /@/boot/vmlinuz-5.0.0-15-generic root=UUID=0000000-000-000 ro
rootflags=subvol=@ quiet splash
> initrd /@/boot/initrd.img-5.0.0-15-generic
> boot
But, this is obviously annoying to have to do every reboot. I've checked my configuration files, everything looks fine, but it just seems like grub cannot read the configuration files for some reason.
The UUID for my primary drive has been obfuscated below, but I did verify that it is accurate in my configuration files.
/etc/fstab:
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# Use 'blkid' to print the universally unique identifier for a
# device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices
# that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).
#
#
# / was on /dev/sda2 during installation
# /boot/efi was on /dev/sda1 during installation

I'm not sure what else I can look at here unless someone has any suggestions?
Edit: I have a laptop that has a very similar setup to this (my desktop), and it is not having the same issue. The one notable difference that I can see is in the /boot/grub/grub.cfg file, my laptop doesn't have the "set root='hd0,gpt2'" line for the grub menuentry. Not sure if that's related or not, but it wouldn't explain why I just don't get the menu at all.
