templates: default: use Ubuntu 25.04, Fedora 42

[AkihiroSuda]

Ubuntu 24.10 will reach EOL soon (2025-07-10).

It should be still noted that Intel Mac with macOS prior to 15.5 requires setting vmType to qemu:

• vz on Intel: kernel 6.12 doesn't boot (when CONFIG_X86_INTEL_MEMORY_PROTECTION_KEYS is set) #3334

Thanks, LGTM

I didn't verify that podman works with the Fedora 42 images.

Can't reproduce this locally

9p can't be used with vanilla QEMU builds on Windows.

I ran the latest changes (with 9p disabled) in GH actions and it was all green. Thank you for fixing IT failures related to 9p! LGTM

The segfault seems specific to x86_64

(gdb) bt
#0  __strncmp_evex () at ../sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/strcmp-evex.S:316
#1  0x000061700a0d3ee3 in parse_args (argc=9, argv=0x7ffc93bd6298, op=0x7ffc93bd4080) at term-utils/agetty.c:939
#2  main (argc=9, argv=0x7ffc93bd6298) at term-utils/agetty.c:403

Apparently fixed in:

• agetty: fix stdin conversion to tty name util-linux/util-linux#3425 (v2.41)
