[Bug 1795637] Re: No login screen when booting Cosmic due to plymouth racing with the rest of the boot process and not releasing DRM devices in time

[Iain Lane]

Almost anything which breaks the boot can have that symptom. I would
suggest not having a meta-bug otherwise it'll be reopened and re-closed
every time. Using that other one should be just fine.
