Those appear to be three different issues, but if you follow through the 
links you posted there's a bug report related to booting from a DVD:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/casper/+bug/1930880

with a workaround:

```
Set "fsck.mode=skip" to boot params via GRUB menu entry
```

(or use a USB flash drive).

My uninformed eye suspects that Casper doesn't like running on a DVD-R.
