  === Begin SRU Template ===
  [Impact]
  update-grub-legacy-ec2 fails on system with missing /etc/fstab with error message:
  Cannot determine root device.  Assuming /dev/hda1
  This error is probably caused by an invalid /etc/fstab
  awk: fatal: cannot open file `/etc/fstab' for reading (No such file or directory)

  [Test Case]

  Mimic missing /etc/fstab config using lxc-proposed-snapshot from 
    https://git.launchpad.net/~smoser/cloud-init/+git/sru-info/tree/bin/lxc-proposed-snapshot

  It publishes an image to lxd with proposed enabled and cloud-init
  upgraded.

  $ name=proposed-test
  $ for release in xenial yakkety zesty; do
  $ ref=$release-proposed
  $ lxc-proposed-snapshot --proposed --publish $release $ref
  $ lxc init $ref $name
  $ lxc start $name
  $ sleep 10
  $ lxc exec $name apt install grub-legacy-ec2
  $ lxc exec $name mv /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.orig
  $ lxc exec $name dpkg-reconfigure grub-legacy-ec2

  # Ensure error message does not exist "This error is probably caused
  by an invalid /etc/fstab"

  [Regression Potential] 
  Low. oneliner in a script
