So, I've been looking into de-UPXing the kernel image and keep getting
told by the UPX binary that the image "wasn't compressed by UPX". Is
there anything special I have to do to convince it otherwise? Was the
kernel in fact not compressed by UPX? I'm using the latest UPX on
Linux Mint 19, if that helps.
What would be the purpose of using UPX today? It made kind of sense back
in the days of slow data media (floppy disks) but nowadays, there just
isn't IMHO any valid reason to do that anymore.
