Removing a kernel crashes my system. #78

Open cedws opened 6 years ago

cedws commented 6 years ago

When I try to remove the latest installed kernel, my system (running on Ubuntu 18.04) sort of... crashes. The screen goes black, and after a few seconds, I am taken back to the lockscreen to login.

Not really sure what diagnostic information I can give here. The kernel I am trying to remove is 4.17.0-rc7, but I'm running my system on 4.17.0-rc2 at the moment as the installation partially fails.

Seems to be a problem with Wayland
