Public bug reported:

I've setup a 20.04 system similar to how I have an 18.04 image setup,
but for some reason cloud-init isn't running on boot with 20.04 like it
is on every boot with 18.04. This is running in a VMware environment.

These base images were created from kickstart and have the same base
packages installed. I 'apt install cloud-init cloud-initramfs-growroot'
on both, and have the same /etc/cloud.cfg on both.

The 18.04 system will run cloud-init on each boot as I see the 120
timeout trying to get to the http:// source host, but 20.04 literally
just boots like no cloud-init is installed/running and lands me right at
the login prompt.

I ran 'systemctl enable cloud-init' and didn't receive an error, and a
'systemctl list-units | grep cloud-init' shows no units, where on 18.04
I see 3 unit files.

The only time I saw something with 'systemctl list-units | grep cloud-
init' was after manually running a 'systemctl start cloud-init' and then
I saw two units show (cloud-init was one and the other was a cloud-init-
something I forget).
