Remove deprecated OS from GOS support list #605

Closed ZouYuhua closed 4 months ago

ZouYuhua commented 4 months ago

Task: Below guest OS versions were never tested in our E2E automation workflow and regression testing, Ubuntu 18.04 was end of standard support on Apr 2023, and the others are not supported for ISO autoinstall . I suggest removing them from https://github.com/vmware/ansible-vsphere-gos-validation?tab=readme-ov-file#compatible-guest-operating-systems

SUSE Linux Enterprise 12 SP5, 15 SP0/SP1/SP2
Ubuntu 18.04 live-server
Ubuntu 18.04 desktop
Debian 9.x, 10.9 and earlier

The autoinstall method for Ubuntu 18.04 live-server is simulation method by sending keys to the console, which has not been tested for past few years. And I also suggest removing the simulation autoinstall for Ubuntu 18.04 live-server.

Test Result: Testing is on-going on the following OS: 1) Ubuntu 22.04 Desktop, live-server and OVA 2) Ubuntu 24.04 Desktop, live-server and OVA
