concerning LZ4 compression of INITRAMFS >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> from master branch in file: gen_initramfs.sh line #1117 change to --> lz4) compress_ext='.lz4' compress_cmd="${cmd_lz4} -z -9 -l -q" ;; <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Add legacy and quiet flags to lz4 command, this will keep lz4 compression output similar to the kind of output you see in other commands, like xz. Legacy flag, at least in my case, my computer will exhibit a kernel panic/missing modules if I don't use legacy mode on lz4, perhaps there is a setting in the kernel to move beyond legacy lz4? The man page says legacy is for kernel stuff. current status :: broken, in my case. FYI, the MASTER branch version of this file is also broken when it comes to my kernel being able to appropriate the right modules from the initramfs, might file another bug for that, vimdiffing it right now.
