[Bug 1925780] Re: armhf & arm64 image do not have cloud-init grub customizations

[John Chittum]

rcj and I had just been discussing this in relation to a new arm64
image.

We are currently re-enabling the file for EC2 arm64 in our EC2 specific
code. I took the workaround from our EC2 and implemented in our test
image. We agreed that we'll need to get 999-cpc-fixes worked out more.

The code that writes the mentioned file is:

https://git.launchpad.net/livecd-rootfs/tree/live-build/ubuntu-
cpc/hooks.d/chroot/999-cpc-fixes.chroot#n189

what everything from 125 to 189 is where I needed to get some more
guidance to ensure everything would work on arm properly.

Title:
  armhf & arm64 image do not have cloud-init grub customizations

Status in livecd-rootfs package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * armhf & arm64 images do not contain cpc image customizations for
  grub.

     Specifically they do not have

     /etc/default/grub.d/50-cloudimg-settings.cfg

     Which disables "quiet splash", removes timeouts, enables serial
  consoles.

  
  [Test Plan]

   * Boot arm64 cloud-image
   * cat /proc/cmdline => check that "quiet splash" is not present
   * ls /etc/default/grub.d/ => check that cloudimg-settings.cfg is there

  [Where problems could occur]

   * Previously 999-cpc-fixes was only executed on i386 & amd64, thus
  care needs to be taken to ensure that none of x86 specific stuff is
  introduced. I.e. dpkg-reconfigure of grub-pc and things about
  menu.lst.
