It looks like there are two different squash file systems that can be installed (or customized):
1. ubuntu- server- minimal - This version has been customized to have a small runtime footprint in environments where humans are not expected to log in.
2. ubuntu-server - The default install contains a curated set of packages that provide a comfortable experience for operating your server.
We could modify Cubic to:
1. Allow the user to select which one they want to customize
2. Allow the user to modify both simultaneously
3. Make an assumption that the user only wants to modify one of these (probably #2, the default)
Option 1 would require additional pages for the user to select the squash file system they want to modify. It will require the user to run Cubic twice if they want to modify both, and it will require some complex logic changes on other pages (such as the Kernels tab on the Options page).
Option 2 will require two different Terminal pages (one for each squash file system) and additional possibly complex logic changes on other pages (such as the Kernels tab on the Options page).
Option 3 will probably be the easiest.
