snapd is seeded in everything but powerpc. images will only be created for i386, amd64, armhf and arm64. we do build generic and module-less initrds at rootfs build time that require hackery to be re-packed when you build a kernel snap, this is what we would like to avoid ... (one expectation is to not have the initrd exceed 2MB)
despite the initrd, if snapd is seeded you have it installed and have a requirement for squashfs with the first use of it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1593134 Title: build squashfs into xenial kernels by default Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in linux source package in Xenial: In Progress Bug description: snapd is seeded in all images in xenial by default and snaps are squashfs files. the snappy images need squashfs available at boot time and use official kernels. currently squashfs is the only module that forces us to re-pack initrds to add it everywhere for snappy images, in that light it would be really helpful to have squashfs built into the kernel instead of it being a module.
