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.

The current version of ubuntu 21.04 will not boot from live dvd:

https://askubuntu.com/questions/1336515/ubuntu-21-4-desktop-iso-burned-to-dvd-fails-to-start
https://news.itsfoss.com/ubuntu-21-04-upgrade-bug/
https://ubuntu-mate.community/t/ubuntu-mate-21-04-live-does-not-boot/24010
