Hi, All, Does LAVA support Ubuntu 12.04? If yes, how can I install it? I haven't found related doc at: https://validation.linaro.org/static/docs/installation.html

No.
Ubuntu 12.04 is Precise Pangolin. LAVA is no longer supported on this platform - it was the base for the old lava deployment tool methods. Due to limitations within lava-deployment-tool and lava-manifest, there is no way to migrate to the packaging based on django1.6 using the tools already installed within the existing LAVA instance.
The oldest supported release of Ubuntu is Trusty Tahr 14.04 LTS and instructions exist for that release, this does include adding an external repository. Support for Trusty 14.04 may need to be dropped before the next Ubuntu LTS is released.
You are recommended to install Debian Jessie (which is the current stable Debian release) where you will find LAVA is already included in the release at version 2014.09.1 and updates will become available via jessie-backports.
https://www.debian.org/ https://packages.debian.org/jessie/lava-server
Other versions of LAVA in Ubuntu: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lava-server
Note: backports of updated LAVA releases are *not* available to Ubuntu - you would be required to upgrade Ubuntu itself and you would then be about a year behind actual LAVA development by doing so.
If yes, how can I install it? I haven't found related doc at: https://validation.linaro.org/static/docs/installation.html
If you had entered "precise" into the search box on that page, you would have been offered the related documentation.
The guide is here: https://validation.linaro.org/static/docs/migration.html
This is the recommended path: https://validation.linaro.org/static/docs/migration.html#debian-jessie
Thanks, it helps!
