Kubuntu 24.04 Testers Wanted

I downloaded and installed the Kubuntu beta and everything went great but noticed some nits. 1). Yes the install showed Lubuntu but that didn't bother me. 2) the new installer is fantastic!  But the one thing I miss is notification on the "configure yourself" screen that a partition is to be formatted.  Nice to be able to check that before clicking INSTALL. 3). The resulting installed system has hibernation turned  on .(or suspend). And that is a show-stopper!  Had to find a way to turn it off.

 I just got your "Testers Wanted" email and grabbed my spare laptop. Here's the first results.

 I downloaded the beta from https://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/24.04/beta/ .


 Then, I attempted to install kubuntu-24.04=beta-desktop-amd64.iso after burning it to a thumbdrive and logging on to my house wifi network.

 I requested a full install to wipe out the previous OS. Also requested all updates as well as additional drivers and software. The first error I noticed was that all of the install preview info screens reference Lubuntu and LXQt rather than Kubuntu.

 That's all for now. Good luck!
