Re: 12.04.1 ISO Testing
Thanks everyone who has already helped with the testing! I saw some great bugs being found and worked -- on upgrades and inside the installer. Excellent work! If you've not yet submitted a result, consider executing a testcase that still needs to be run. victor.zhou jibel fabiomarconi psivaa jr smartboyhw lbsolost carla-sella stgraber patrickdk claudio.arseni liquidplay jjfrv8-gmail mcblackmar02 len-ovenwerks fabrizioorsini kitterman luigitanese bturner01 alessiogrossosgarrillo kanliot We still have need of someone who can help with the amd64+mac images http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/230/builds/21390/testcases http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/230/builds/21400/testcases Sadly I don't have hardware here to help out with this :-( If you have hardware and are able to help, consider submitting a result.

I've filed a bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1038248 Thanks for the tips Karl, If I remember correctly it was an early 64-bit AMD processor, and it ran beautifully live with Lubuntu 64 bit. I tried also to install directly without first booting the live desktop. I had done manual partitioning before using gparted, still no go until I used the alternate CD.

Re: 12.04.1 ISO Testing
I almost forgot -- since this is 12.04.1, the alternate images are a part of this release :-) Don't forget them! I'm in quantal mode and didn't even think when I saw them. FYI, for quantal, we are attempting to reduce our image count (to make our testing easier and reduce fragmentation for bugs and issues). The alternate images (for ubuntu) are targeted to be dropped. More discussions on this will happen during beta, when ubiquity should have all the changes necessary to support the functionality found in the alt images.

Re: 12.04.1 ISO Testing
I find the alternate iso files useful for old computers with low RAM. A couple of weeks ago I failed to install Lubuntu 12.04 from the live CD into a 512 MB RAM computer of a friend. That computer has good graphics and a fair CPU, so the alternate iso file helped me to make a responsive computer of a sluggish one. WinXP was just too much for it, and my friend does not want to spend money on RAM for such an old computer. It was just standing there as a letter-press but now her children can use it for internet tasks including games. So please help the alternate iso files survive at least for the light-weight flavours Lubuntu and Xubuntu! Or introduce a text mode installer into the standard live iso files?!

Re: 12.04.1 ISO Testing
Nio, don't worry! The alternate cd's for the ubuntu flavors are being retained. I know for a fact lubuntu is keeping alternate cd's -- my guess is xubuntu will also. I haven't heard confirmation from any flavor that they are dropping them -- it's a flavor specific decision what images to ship.The mini and netboot iso's are sticking around, so those wishing to install ubutun on a lower spec'd machine still have options. That said, the installer team is still working on ubiquity, and when the alternate cd's are completely dropped, more information as far as options for what ubiquity doesn't support should be made available.
