Today’s ISO swelled to 9.9GB!!!
Ubuntu 25.10 (Questing Quokka) Daily Build 2025-06-07 15:43 9.9G
Is this a temporary problem or will it remain?
those of 5 and 6 Jun were also 9.9GB

The good news is that the “pending” 9.9GB images didn’t pass QA so are not considered “current”. The current image is still 2025-06-03 and 6.1GB.

The bad news is that after a week the ISOs are still gigantic.
Hi @jibel ,
Thanks for taking the time to answer. I do know of authd and are following it with interest.
May we expect it to be included during the Ubuntu installation, much like the checkbox for Use Active Directory is present, during install of Jammy and later today?
Yes, that’s the plan. We do not have a design yet, but it’ll be similar to Active Directory.

Hey @QwertyChouskie,
I just uploaded a Snap Package for Edit. It is indeed a very cool little text editor. Brings me back to my QBASIC days 
Give it a shot and let me know how it works for you!

Let’s not pollute this topic too much with this. On the first part, the dailies are going over some transitions, so, for the moment, do not rely on the recovery key that is returned yet. You have some placeholders and mocks to exercise the new UI and changes that will be part of questing. I plan to blog about this in a couple of weeks.
On the second one (nvidia support), this is supposed to already work on the daily image. Let’s move that discussion on Bug #2113922 “Nvidia driver with optimus not installed with TPM/...” : Bugs : subiquity that I opened for you, shall we?
Thanks a lot!

Will there be an option to use autoinstall.yaml link with password or certificate-based authentication?
Currently, we are using this option to preinstall some software like MS Edge and Google Chrome,
However, if we want to provide our company’s sensitive information in that configuration file, we need to have authentication support.
The questing daily ISO is back at 6GB today (we reverted the livecd-rootfs change that created the issue)
