Pre-releases of the Yakkety Yak are *not* encouraged for anyone needing stable system or anyone who is not comfortable running into ccasional, even frequent breakage. They are, however, recommended for buntu flavor developers and those who want to help in testing, eporting and fixing bugs as we work towards getting this release ready.You can find official release announcement in Ubuntu developer mailing list.
Alpha 2 includes a number of software updates that are ready for wider esting. This is still an early set of images, so you should expect some ugs.
While these Alpha 2 images have been tested and work, except as noted in he release notes, Ubuntu developers are continuing to improve the akkety Yak. In particular, once newer daily images are available, ystem installation bugs identified in the Alpha 2 installer should be erified against the current daily image before being reported in aunchpad. Using an obsolete image to re-report bugs that have already een fixed wastes your time and the time of developers who are busy rying to make 16.10 the best Ubuntu release yet. Always ensure your ystem is up to date before reporting bugs.
