[Bug 1895329] Re: when booting cloned live drive 3rd partition is created without file system

[sudodus]

Sorry for the garbled list in 'details.txt', the non-standard characters
are not rendered nicely by Firefox. Here is a better list from this
computer:

Title:
  when booting cloned live drive 3rd partition is created without file
  system

Status in casper package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When iso testing the current daily Lubuntu iso file (dated 2020-09-11),
  I notice that a third partition is created (during the boot process),
  but no file system is recognized by lsblk -f, and it is not used for
  logging (as we are used to from Focal and previous versions of Groovy).

  In this case it is seen by lsblk as /dev/sda3. See details in the
  attached file.
