Hmmm, theory will need refinement. * I can not spot relevant changes in cloud-init. It was -20.2-lp152.5.9.1 when still working and -20.2-lp152.5.12.1 when failing. * kernel-default-5.3.18-lp152.50.1 does not fix the issue So we're still looking for a change (possibly still cloud-init, but likely something else in the boot process ... udev, systemd, ...) that now uncovers the previously hidden issue. My working image is from Nov 25, the Dec 30 image does no longer work.
