I've always installed the latest Ubuntu LTS as a VM, so this is a biennial Rite of Spring. Like jmgibson, I'd say this is the cleanest 'dot-zero' Ubuntu LTS I've seen (going back to 16.04). In fact, haven't found any glitches yet. Noticed was being installed in Virt-Manager, so included spice-vdagent. BIOS boot gets only GPT + BIOS boot partition (last two LTSs got superfluous EFI partitions). Default installation gets a 4 GB swap file, which I think is a good default. Default installation now includes relatively few apps, or can opt to specify which apps to install; I like it. Main problem is Snaps, but that's old news. Also, the ISO is now 6 GB (22.04 was 3.7 GB), which is pretty bloated.
