Title:
  precisely every second boot fails

Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  It does not matter whether the machine crashed last time, it was a clean reboot or shutdown, after the BIOS the display is black.
  The boot process might continue, but I cannot see it. The machine (Lenovo T530) have full-disk LUKS protection, so I cannot figure out whether it would boot up and find a correct display. Some times I was trying to enter the LUKS password, but no sign of booting.
  If after that I turn it off and turn it on again, the machine boots normally.
  lspci says this about the display controller:
  00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Ivy Bridge Graphics Controller (rev 09)
