apt-get hangs on Setting up grub-pc
Yesterday I did my usual
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
Everything went fine until it hit
Setting up grub-pc (2.02-2ubuntu8.12) ...
where it became unresponsive. I ended up killing the process and trying to fix it with
dpkg --configure -a
but the same thing happens. If I recall correctly from previous upgrades, grub-pc brings up a text based GUI on the terminal that lets you select some parameter before continuing the process. I suspect the reason it hangs is because it's waiting for me to select something, but I have no way of doing it because the menu never shows up. Does anyone have any idea what may be causing this? I'm afraid of rebooting my computer now. My computer is running Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS.
