Comment 6 for bug 1961620

Thanks for looking into this. I thought about pivoting into /target too, that should save us from worrying about mounts at all, but requires changes in how subiquity operates, and in general moves a bit away from the idea that installs done from ISO should be treatable like cloud instances, which is what allows us to use cloud-init on bare metal after all. It a good guiding principle, as it helps convergence between bare metal server systems and cloud instances.

On "not making cloud-init wait forever": I see your point, however in the case of subiquity we're speaking of a freshly installed system, which can't be in production. Between blocking boot and booting but misconfiguring the system, I'm not sure the latter is better.
