Bug Description
I see that Live Ubuntu 20.04 is plagued by disk checking on boot.
Not just with Live USB but with Persistent USB also.
If not fast enough to cancel with ctl-c it starts on filesystem.squashfs and runs until over 90% complete.
Very irritating. There have been quite a few complaints on Ask Ubuntu already.
If it was just a run once it would not be so bad.
Is there some way to get rid of this or is it a bug we have to live with?
Perusing Ask Ubuntu everyday for many years I have never seen anybody ask for such a feature.
A run once filesystem check might have its uses on a Live installer drive but is not needed on a Persistent utility drive.
The only alternative I see is to use a Full install USB drive were automatic disk checking is not run.
