[Bug 1821252] [NEW] systemctl set-default breaks recovery mode

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug by Eric Desrochers (slashd):

Fresh Ubuntu 18.04.2 server install

Try to boot to recovery mode from GRUB. Works correctly.

Use systemctl to set a different default, say systemctl set-default
multi-user.target

Try to boot to recovery mode from GRUB. End up at getty and not the
recovery menu.

Delete /etc/systemd/system/default.target* and recovery mode works
normally again.


I believe this can be fixed by changing normaldir to earlydir in the
generator.
