I just upgraded Ubuntu 16.04 to 18.04 and after reboot it shows 

Gave up waiting for suspend/resume device
/: clean, 293537/3932160 files, 4067550/15719936 blocks
cryptsetup (md5_crypt): set up successfully

then it doesn't go to log in page.

Even though it hangs here, I can ssh in the computer and I can access folders and files. (one problem is terminal doesn't have the ability of interpolation and showing history command though)

My quick search on this error is telling this problem is related to swap memory. Let me share some of the command outputs here and some approaches I already tried and not worked.

$ sudo blkid | grep swap
/dev/mapper/sdb8_crypt: UUID="19a5cc43-2391-461e-9d36-ecb21d23cbe1" TYPE="swap"
/dev/mapper/sda8_crypt: UUID="a68d5301-6f0c-4069-be2b-b43d42e4697c" TYPE="swap"

$ sudo cat  /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume
#RESUME=UUID=6f0ca38b-604e-4641-8d12-c81fd8228098
#RESUME=none
RESUME=UUID=19a5cc43-2391-461e-9d36-ecb21d23cbe1
#RESUME=UUID=a68d5301-6f0c-4069-be2b-b43d42e4697c

First row was a row I had first and I commented out it then added second, third and fourth, and tried them respectively but non of them worked well with $sudo update-initramfs -u

$ cat /etc/default/grub

I saw tried the following solutions but none of them worked. Swap: From partition to file, now get "no matching swap device is available" threads I could find is similar to this)

$ ls /swapfile
ls: cannot access '/swapfile': No such file or directory)

I think the problem is your disk is encrypted and you can't use an encrypted swap to hybernate the system.

Try to disable resume uncommenting RESUME=none in /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume and running sudo update-initramfs -u -k all. Then run sudo update-grub and reboot.

If it doesn't work check grub config with grep resume /boot/grub/grub.cfg to see if somehow some strange resume setting is ending up there despite having none in /etc/default/grub.

Edit: You can also disable resume adding the kernel paramenter noresume in /etc/default/grub.
