Public bug reported:

I upgraded a raspberry pi 3B+ from disco (installed using the 32-bit
bionic image and then upgraded successfully to cosmic and disco) to
eoan, but it became unbootable - the initrd was unable to mount the root
filesystem.

One caveat of my setup is that I migrated my root filesystem layout from
ext4 to raid1 btrfs on two partitions. So in my
/boot/firmware/cmdline.txt I had "rootfstype=btrfs rootflags=subvol=@".

After the do-release-upgrade to eoan, cmdline.txt was gone, and the new
nobtcmd.txt had the default "rootfstype=ext4" only.

The fix was easy once the issue was clear.
