[Bug 2098105] Please test proposed package

[Andreas Hasenack]

Hello Skia, or anyone else affected,

Accepted livecd-rootfs into noble-proposed. The package will build now
and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/livecd-
rootfs/24.04.85 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been
performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-
noble to verification-done-noble. If it does not fix the bug for you,
please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-
failed-noble. In either case, without details of your testing we will
not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

Title:
  Enable the HWE kernel flavor for 24.04.3

Status in livecd-rootfs package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in livecd-rootfs source package in Noble:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [ Impact ]

  As part of 24.04.2, we should have enabled the HWE kernel for desktop and server.
  Desktop switches to HWE by default, but server images need to offer both.
  Additionally, desktop flavors make that switch too at the same time.

  Unfortunately, this was overlooked for .2, but will be necessary for
  24.04.3. The goal is to land that as soon as Noble .2 is out, so that
  people really needing the HWE stack will be able to grab a daily.

  
  [ Test Case ]

  Wait for daily builds once the HWE kernel is available.
  * Double check that the images build correctly.
  * Boot the desktop image and confirm it's using the HWE kernel.
  * Boot the server image and confirm there's a selection of which kernel to use and both GA and HWE kernels work.
  * Check flavor desktop images and make sure those also use the HWE kernel.

  
  [ Where problems could occur ]

  Any regressions would possibly be around kernel selection for our
  images. Maybe checking flavors if they are still using the right ones
  would make sense. Most issues would be visible with image build
  failures.

  
  [ Other Info ]

  6.11 HWE stack has already landed in noble-updates, so it's very
  straightforward to confirm which kernel is in use (vs 6.8, GA kernel)
