Public bug reported:
After installing 20.04.1 using the ZFS root option I installed Xen. When
it rebooted it failed in initramfs with the error "No pool imported". I
was able to boot the previous kernel. When I examined the
/boot/grub/grub.cfg I found what looked like invalid "root=ZFS=" options
like this:
"root=ZFS=/ROOT/ubuntu_xxxxxx"
The previous kernel that boots looks like this:
"root=ZFS=rpool/ROOT/ubuntu_xxxxxx"
After looking in /etc/default/grub and /etc/grub.d I was unable to
figure out why they were different and how I could change it.
As a test saved a copy and edited /boot/grub/grub.cfg adding the rpool
to each "root=ZFS=" line where rpool was missing. This time I was able
to boot the Xen kernel.
==============================
How to reproduce the problem
>From scratch install ubuntu 20.04.1 desktop, select ZFS as root option, then
>install xen-hypervisor-4.11-amd64.
It will fail to reboot because the grub root=ZFS argument is wrong.
