Public bug reported:
The problem:
The following iPXE cmdline fails to boot the 20.04 Desktop iso served via NFS
but works flawlessly for 18.04 and earlier:
"kernel images/ubuntu_desktop_20/casper/vmlinuz
initrd images/ubuntu_desktop_20/casper/initrd
imgargs vmlinuz initrd=initrd root=/dev/nfs boot=casper netboot=nfs
nfsroot=192.168.5.1:/var/www/images/ubuntu_desktop_20/ ip=dhcp --
boot"
During early boot, the only error message printed is:
"Unable to find a live file system on the network" with no further help on why
the failure occoured or how to resolve it.
How to reproduce:
1. Download the official ubuntu desktop iso
2. Copy casper directory to nfsroot location
5. Boot client PC
6. Watch boot fail
I am not sure why it's failing.
