Changes in this release:

NOTE There is a bug in the version of subiquity included in Ubuntu 20.04.2 that causes the UI to crash when an update is started. The update will still complete, but it will not be as smooth an experience as it should be.

  • Fix a race which sometimes left a spinner spinning on the process screen even when the install was complete (LP: #1912957)
  • Fix rebooting after a partially interactive install (LP: #1919075)
  • Fix crash on submitting an error report (LP: #1919076)
  • Fix crash when subiquity snap is updated (LP: #1913417)
  • Update curtin, fixing a few bugs:
    • fix formatting disks with very small partitions (LP: #1868177)
    • fix creating logical volumes when the underlying storage has previously been used for a filesystem (LP: #1923487)
    • fix wiping of existing dasd partition
    • set passno to "1" in fstab for most filesystems (LP: #1717584, LP: #1785354
  • Improve the way the selected locale is written to the target system (LP: #1913624)
  • Fix guided LVM install when a volume group with the name "ubuntu-vg" already exists (LP: #1905412)
  • Round a lvm lv size down to chunk size, because otherwise lvcreate will round it up and it may not fit (LP: #1919053)
  • Allow hostnames to start with a digit (LP: #1916325)
  • Do not crash on zdev screen on a system with a device that has been automatically configured by DPM (LP: #1919420)
  • Make "ssh into installer session" feature work after cloud-init change that hides a randomly set password better
  • Fix a crash experienced when the subiquity snap was refreshed from a sub-shell (LP: #1921820)
  • Start API server earlier, making for a slightly smoother start up experience
  • Add a setting (currently only accessible via autoinstall) to control whether 'all' or 'security' updates are applied at the end of the install.
    • The default behavior is to just install security updates. Putting "updates: all" in the autoinstall has the installer also apply the non-security updates in addition. "updates: security" can be used to enforce the current default behavior.
