There has to be a half-way house between booting a kernel until it fails
to find a rootfs and running a full Ubuntu distro. Maybe just asking
systemd to reach "rescue.target" would be enough to show the disks are
up and userspace works.
Running the EFI firmware is probably useful coverage but I'm not sure
how one passes command line args to the guest in that approach? Do we
need to set a magic EFI variable?
