Hello Alex,

I believe that as soon as grub2 is fixed in the archive, the installer
should be able pick it up without requiring new ISOs, but we will have
confirmation when the fix is out. For sure, if you are doing offline
installations, a new ISO will be required though.

If you would like to do some testing, I can suggest the following
workaround (I only tested it for installing Ubuntu Server but I think it
should work for the desktop installer too)

1. Boot the installer
2. Create (as root) a file named /autoinstall.yaml and add this content:

version: 1
debconf-selections: |
  grub-pc grub-efi/cloud_style_installation boolean false
interactive-sections: ["*"]

3. Restart the installer
  * If you are using the desktop installer, run `sudo snap restart 
ubuntu-desktop-bootstrap` and then click on "Install Ubuntu 24.04"
  * If you are using the server installer, run `sudo snap restart subiquity`

NOTE: if you are already doing automated installs, you should be able to
add the workaround to your existing autoinstall file, without requiring
a restart of the installer.

As for the actual Beta release, please note that it is planned for early
April. You can find the actual schedule at

Thanks,
Olivier
