[Bug 2065408] Re: growroot-almost should be inhibitable from boot partition

[Dave Jones]

Since noble .1 and oracular, both desktop and server images now use
cloud-init so theoretically this should be simple. However, I suspect
the growroot-almost service on the desktop may interfere with this. Need
to double-check what happens when cloud-init's growpart:off setting is
used.

Title:
  growroot-almost should be inhibitable from boot partition

Status in ubuntu-raspi-settings package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Some users wish to handle post-boot partitioning or fs configuration
  themselves. For this use-case it is important that the rootfs is *not*
  expanded on first boot. On the server images, this is relatively
  trivial by appending "growpart: off", but on the desktop images it's
  handled by the growroot-almost service and this is only capable of
  being inhibited by touching /etc/growroot-grown. It should be possible
  to inhibit this behaviour from the boot partition only which, being
  FAT, can be mounted from other OS'.
