Bug Description
When booting from Ubuntu 20.04-iso's (20.04, 20.04.1, 20.04.2), the bootoption "showmounts" is broken, no /cow folder will be created. Because of the missing /cow folder casper-snapshot is not working (--cow is mandatory).
A cat /proc/cmdline shows the passed "showmounts". With 18.04.x-iso's it works correct.

I guess this was broken in https:/ /launchpad. net/ubuntu/ +source/ casper/ 1.428 although that looks like it should _always_ create /cow rather than just when showmounts in passed. It's not working though.
