Public bug reported:
I was playing with using the lxd image converted to squashfs as a root
filesystem to be booted on a real system (not in lxc or lxd).
I grabbed a kernel and initramfs from maas ephemeral images, and boot mostly
worked.
However, cloud-initramfs-copymods will not work if /lib/modules isn't present
in the image.
cloud-initramfs-copymods ensures that the modules in the initramfs are availble
after boot in /lib/modules/<kver>
It does this by creating a tmpfs mount over /lib/modules and moving the
initramfs /lib/modules to there.
However, to do that it needs the /lib/modules mount point to exist in
the read-only (at that point) root filesystem.
So, long story short, I'm asking for creation of an empty /lib/modules
directory in the lxd/lxc images.
