Title:
  systemctl set-default breaks recovery mode

Status in friendly-recovery package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Fresh Ubuntu 18.04.2 server install

  Try to boot to recovery mode from GRUB. Works correctly.

  Use systemctl to set a different default, say systemctl set-default
  multi-user.target

  Try to boot to recovery mode from GRUB. End up at getty and not the
  recovery menu.

  Delete /etc/systemd/system/default.target* and recovery mode works
  normally again.


  I believe this can be fixed by changing normaldir to earlydir in the
  generator.
