[Bug 2114923] Re: Upon booting iso, no snaps are installed and desktop installer service crashes

[Ernest Lotter]

After discussion with Olivier G and Didier RT, I confirmed the the
change to livecd-rootfs that enforces the correct boot order is the
definitive fix. The change to snapd is an enhancement that attempts to
lower the likelyhood of a race condition but it is NOT a definite fix.

  ---original---

  Upon booting an ISO (I believe this may only happen with slow internet
  connections) there is (sometimes) NO snaps installed. Snapd is
  functional but snap info list lists no snaps. The desktop installer
  services crashes, and thus the installer never boots up. After *quite*
  some time (approx 5m) on this live iso, snaps were installed, and the
  installer icon then functional. I've attached the journalctl to help
  debugging.
