Using Dan's ubuntu-server livefs linked above, and building with -proposed enabled:

Depending on what entry choosen in GRUB, I successfully see versions 6.8.0-54-generic (the GA currently in -proposed) and 6.11.0-18-generic (the HWE currently in -proposed). I think this is enough to consider the livecd-rootfs changes verified, but I'll let the release team make the point here. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2098105 Title: Enable the HWE kernel flavor for 24.04.3 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/livecd-rootfs/+bug/2098105/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
