Title:
  partial-upgrade fails building grub

Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  On 1/31/2021 a popup appeared on my Ubuntu 20.04 desktop to run a
  partial upgrade. I accepted and the upgrade hung here:

  Setting up grub-efi=amd64 (2.04-lubuntu26.8) ...
  .
  .
  Found intrd image: /boot/intird.img-5.4.0-64-generic

  That was nearly 24 hours ago and nothing further has happened.
