I'm a Gentoo user. On my setups, I usually set the noauto flag for the /boot partition. Maybe its just some good 'ol fashion paranoia, but I like not to mount /boot unless really needed. Because I need to compile my own kernel, I have a kernel update script that mounts /boot for me.
I've just installed a Ubuntu server for a client, and want to set noauto for /boot. Can apt take care of /boot mounting when its updating the kernel, initramfs and/or grub?
On Ubuntu Server 18.04.03 LTS, fresh install, I wanted to do edit some kernel command line settings. In /etc/default/grub, I found the following set:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="maybe-ubiquity"
I'm a Linux power user, but never really tried Ubuntu. So quick Google tells me that Ubiquity is the Ubuntu installer. Why would a production server want to run the installer maybe?
Can I delete this entry? This is for a client's in-house server and I don't want to give anybody options to enter into an installer (accidentally). Furthermore, I have my own ways of getting into crippled systems. No need for an installer to help me.
