====== Supporting Ubuntu 9.10 in BKO ====== This page will document progress and problems faced in supporting Ubuntu 9.10 in BKO. ===== new format for initrd ===== Ubuntu 9.10 is using new format for compressing initrd files. It uses ''lzma'' command for this. This is quite new format for me, so struggling little bit with it. For decompressing the ''initrd.lz'', use following steps. <code> mv initrd.lz initrd.lzma unlzma initrd.lzma </code> I still have some problems in compressing it back. The default ''lzma'' compression does not match the original ''initrd.lz'' file, so I am doing something wrong here.
