** Description changed: + + For 20.04.0 d-i is changing from /images/ to /legacy-images/ in it's directory structure. + + For 20.04.1+ it will not exist at all. + + For all Ubuntu releases virt-install should learn how to use cloud- + images from https://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/ which are preinstalled + cloud-init enabled qcow2 images, with unpacked kernels. Allowing to + change kernel cmdline parameters and boot in-place. Which is the best & + default Ubuntu experience on VMs. + + --- + Installer version: Latest https://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/dists/focal/main/installer-s390x Description/Reproduction: Start virt-install with the following options: virt-install \ --name ubuntu20-guest1 \ --memory 4096 \ --vcpus 4 \ --disk "size=4" \ --location http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/dists/focal/main/installer-s390x \ - --network "network=default" + --network "network=default" Error: ERROR Error validating install location: Could not find an installable distribution at 'http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/dists/focal/main/installer-s390x' The location must be the root directory of an install tree. See virt-install man page for various distro examples. - - Looking at previous releases I would guess it expects an "images" directory instead of the new "classic-images" directory. I'm aware of the workaround to specify kernel/initramfs directly but that shouldn't be a solution. + Looking at previous releases I would guess it expects an "images" + directory instead of the new "legacy-images" directory.
