Hello,
I recently performed a system upgrade on one of my guest machines (Ubuntu) and found it was unable to boot. I get my pygrub menu showing kernel versions 5.3.0-23-generic (which fails) and 5.0.0.-36-generic (which still works):
The host is running gentoo linux with xen 4.11.2. My best guess is that the 5.0.0-36 kernel was not LZ4 compressed, and 5.3.0-23 is... and pygrub doesn't know how to decompress it. I'd take the easier of:
1. Disabling LZ4 compression for the kernel under Ubuntu
or
2. Enabling LZ4 compression on pygrub under Gentoo (located under the xen-tools package for version 4.11.2).
How should I proceed? I'd actually prefer option 2, but I don't see any convenient Gentoo USE flags enabling LZ4 compression.
