Exactly the same issue. It starts since I did upgrade from 16.04.5 to 16.04.6. I attached the related config files: /etc/default/grub and /boot/grub/grub.cfg. My case is definitely not like #13: I have /boot entry in /etc/fstab and I double checked that when I do `update-grub' /boot is mounted, has free space and populated accordingly:

$ cat /etc/fstab| grep /boot
# /boot was on /dev/sda7 during installation
UUID=XXXX /boot ext3 defaults 0 2

$ df -h | grep /boot
/dev/sda7 2.0G 125M 1.7G 7% /boot

$ lsb_release -a

I also tried #33 workaround: doesn't work for me.

P.S. The most inconvenient thing for me in this is that I have a bluetooth keyboard as my primary keyboard, so now, since I did this upgrade, I have to keep another one physically attached keyboard each time when I want to boot.
