Since we are in the process of deprecating nova maremetal, we should

Title:
  kernel boot command line for baremetal assumes block device UUID is
  correct root

Status in OpenStack Bare Metal Provisioning Service (Ironic):
  New
Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova):
  Opinion

Bug description:
  It does this by checking blkid on the device it wrote the image too,
  but if the image contains lvm or any other translation layer, this
  won't be the actual UUID to use.

  We may be better off with a LABEL that we can document every image to
  have (e.g. cloudimg-rootfs)

  this can be worked around for now by editing the template

  root=${ROOT} -> root=LABEL=cloudimg-rootfs
