I'm not involved with MAAS or image building, but I seriously doubt that
we build images with -proposed enabled regularly. What you could do is
one of the following:

 * Boot an existing installation with "root=/dev/sda", enable -proposed,
dist-upgrade, and reboot (again with the default root=/dev/disks/by-
path/*iscsi*). That's what I did with the approach from Scott with
launching QEMU.

 * If you are dealing with a root fs tarball: take an existing image
tarball, unpack it, sudo chroot into it, within the chroot enable
-proposed, dist-upgrade it, re-pack it again

 * If you are dealing with a compressed root fs image like
http://maas.ubuntu.com/images/ephemeral-v2/daily/utopic/amd64/20141110
/root-image.gz: gunzip root-image.gz, "sudo mount -o loop root-image
/mnt", then chroot/upgrade like above, and "sudo umount /mnt" again.

  I have tried installing 2 physical servers, moline and premier as well
  as a ppc64el VM, huffman-vm10, and I get the same failure for each.

  Gave up waiting for root device.  Common problems:
   - Boot args (cat /proc/cmdline)
     - Check rootdelay= (did the system wait long enough?)
     - Check root= (did the system wait for the right device?)
   - Missing modules (cat /proc/modules; ls /dev)
