Also affects Edubuntu and Ubuntu Studio. Edubuntu boots to a "Welcome"
screen that it shouldn't with a default GNOME screen, while Ubuntu
Studio boots to a blank black screen, repeating issues where it is not
getting a user via casper as before.

Looks like it might be a debian-cd issue after recent changes there.

Also getting similar messages to comment #5 above:

```
passwd: user 'edubuntu' does not exist

```
passwd: user 'ubuntu-studio' does not exist


This to me indicates that casper doesn't know what to do because the boot parameters don't indicate a layered file system.

Specifically these commits seem to have affected the builds:

Title:
  Layered flavor ISO images built without live user

Status in livecd-rootfs package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Yesterdays daily 6th and todays noble daily (rebuilt) 7th both boot
  directly to the login screen rather than to the desktop.

  I have an ISO from the 2nd Feb (or possibly the 1st) where there were
  no issues.

  I cannot login via "ubuntu-budgie" - no password via the login screen
  nor via a TTY so I can't see any journalctl logs etc.

  Any ideas what may have changed?  Something to-do with the glib
  transitions happening at the moment?

  Virtualbox boot - 4GB memory, 128MB virtual graphics (no 3d
  acceleration), 40GB virtual HDD 2 virtual cores
