Comment 5 for bug 1817050

Alfonso, sorry this took so long - the work on this piece has been a bit pushed back and pushed back, which was also my fault. So after discussing this with Steve some more and investigating all other fancy approaches, we came to the conclusion that not clearing /boot/grub/ at all feels like the lesser evil. So I prepared a PR that reverts the design decision of clearing /boot/grub.

This way we'll advertise that the boot configuration should still, at best, be part of the gadget tree, but we're giving the ability to developers to decide if they want to maybe use what's provided via the rootfs as well.

Alfonso, could you take a look at https://github.com/CanonicalLtd/ubuntu-image/pull/183 and tell me if this would solve your problem?
