Speaking of cloud-images generally I propose the following:
* Images in the ubuntu-cpc project by default should boot with an initramfs.
* Revert the livecd-rootfs change which "Unconditionally set
GRUB_FORCE_PARTUUID in cloud images"
* Images with custom kernels can boot without an initramfs
* Set GRUB_FORCE_PARTUUID as part of livefs-rootfs:live-build/functions
replace_kernel() as this is used by the ubuntu-cpc project for each image that
ships an optimized kernel intended to boot without initramfs.
Steve, I agree with everything you said in comment #21 about removing
not this functionality from Azure images. I think there is room to
improve the experience for users that change their kernel and encounter
this behavior. The panic/reboot behavior is unexpected and the mapping
of GRUB_FORCE_PARTUUID to initramfs-less boot is non-obvious to the end
user. I don't immediately have suggestions to smooth this rough edge
but I feel that we need to take some time on this before completely
closing this bug out.
