Title:
  18.04 installation with internet access results in GRUB minimal BASH-
  like interface with no boot entries

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  After installing Ubuntu 18.04, while the destination PC has internet
  access, the installation results in an unbootable state where you
  cannot get passed the GRUB minimal BASH-like interface. This occurs
  whether a "normal" or "minimal" install is selected, "download
  updates" or not, and "third party packages" or not. However, if all
  internet access is removed (no WiFi or ethernet) then the installer
  works, and I an boot into Ubuntu. I suspect that the installer
  downloads updates for Ubiquity or GRUB if possible, but I am not for
  sure. There are a number of people reporting this issue since
  yesterday as well.
