> [ Impact ]
> 
> The Pi Zero 2W, 2B, and 3B all fail to light their power LED once the kernel starts booting under noble (I hope this is only on noble; I only just noticed this during ISO testing and it's quite possible I missed it on earlier revisions...).
> 
> Specifically, on the 2W (which only has a combined activity and power LED), /sys/class/leds/ACT/trigger is [actpwr] on RaspiOS, which makes it illuminate by default and blink off during mmc0 activity. This trigger setting appears to be unavailable under the Ubuntu kernel.
> 
> On the 2B and 3B, the trigger is set to [none] which results in the LED initially illuminating while the bootloader is running and then disappearing. The default under RaspiOS is [input] which makes it illuminate normally, but switch off on undervolt. This trigger settging also appears unavailable under the Ubuntu kernel.
> 
> [ Test Case ]
> 
> 1. Observe LED behavior during boot.
> 2. Default modes should be [actpwr]/[input]:
>    $ grep '' /sys/class/leds/*/trigger
> 
> [ Where Problems Could Occur ]
> 
> Additional kernel code is exercised at boot and later. Could cause the usual kernel issues: Crashes, hangs, freezes, splats, ...
