Changes since last BETA

Unprivileged user namespaces

Ubuntu 24.04 ships with stricter kernel settings that restrict unprivileged user namespaces.

While this is good for security, Electron-based apps (like Etcher) no longer work on Ubuntu, unless they install an AppArmor profile to allow the app to run. Most Electron-based apps don’t include an AppArmor profile in the package and will fail to run as a result.

I have reverted this change in Asmi 24.04 so that Electron-based apps continue to work normally. If you have stricter security requirements for your system, you can enable it again by editing the file /etc/sysctl.conf.

This will give you access to refreshed ISO images for Asmi 24.04 that can be used for new installation. These ISOs include newer kernels and better hardware support. It also saves time, since less updates need to be downloaded after installation.

Refreshed ISOs will be available on the same schedule as Ubuntu. For example, Asmi 24.04.1 will be available the same week after Ubuntu 24.04.1 is released.
