aboot unzip "unknown compression method" on recent (post 6.4) kernels?
Hi,
I have been unable to boot kernels after 6.4; aboot fails with
"unzip: unknown compression method". Specifically:
- vmlinuz-6.4.0-1-alpha-generic --> works
- vmlinuz-6.6.15-alpha-generic --> fails
- vmlinuz-6.11.6-alpha-generic --> fails
This is on a XP1000 (EV67/Tsunami/Monet). aboot is
1.0~pre20200212-1. FWIW, "gzip -l --verbose" says all kernels are
compressed with the same method:
$gzip -l --verbose vmlinuz-6*
method crc date time compressed uncompressed ratio
uncompressed_name
defla 2ad47e09 Nov 4 13:57 7010635 24244720 71.1%
vmlinuz-6.11.6-alpha-generic
defla 148fa7ac Jul 22 23:53 6814008 23614088 71.1%
vmlinuz-6.4.0-1-alpha-generic
defla 30836626 Feb 4 12:28 7045662 24145360 70.8%
vmlinuz-6.6.15-alpha-generic
Did something more subtle change in compression in between kernel
6.4 and 6.6?
Thanks,
-Alex
