Title:
  Random boot failure with Ubuntu 20.04 / grub 2.04 and Hyper-V 2012r2

Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Hi,

  We are experiencing some weird boot issues with Ubuntu 20.04 and
  Hyper-V 2012r2.

  In two cases the installation started successfully, as did the VM
  initial boot and then issues started to arise, where the boot process
  started to fail.

  grub start, the menu pop-up and then just after loading kernel and
  initrd (tried to put some echo(es) in the config the VM somehow reset
  and the menu pop-up back again.

  After a few of thoses either the VM shut-down or the boot is
  successfull, It seems completly random..

  Here it is captured on video:
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Bk3S-YGDZk

  If i setup a direct EFI-STUB boot of the kernel+initrd the boot
  process works every times.

  I suspected the "save_env/load_env" for a while but a stripped down
  grub.cfg give the same result..
