I have the previous Ubuntu Touch dualboot on my Nexus 4 (mako) and the
dualboot.sh script is becoming stuck on this part

Dev:00772e71d90d0223: Rebooting to bootloader
Waiting for device to be connected in normal or recovery mode
Dev:00772e71d90d0223: Waiting for fastboot to be ready
downloading 'boot.img'...

It is trying to run this command, which never returns:
fastboot -s 00772e71d90d0223 boot recovery-mako-6.0.4.3.img

On my phone, it shows the fastboot screen where I must select power off,
Start, reboot to recovery or restart bootloader. It never gets out of this
screen if I don't interact.

> downloaded from the official channels.
