Hi @sushilkhadkaanon!

Older releases that are EOL'd, ie, "unsupported" will not show up by default in Multipass. That said, it is possible to try launching these by issuing multipass launch 16.04. The Multipass team does not make any guarantees that "unsupported" images will launch successfully.

You can see the full list of images using multipass find --show-unsupported.
