Well, yes and no. xgene-uboot *is* required. But xgene-uboot *is* the generic kernel - it just has a u-boot wrapper prepended. So what I meant by comment #10, is that I wonder should allow xgene-uboot in the same cases where we allow -generic for HWE kernels, such as this code from src/maasserver/utils/osystems.py:
if subarch != "generic" and ( (hwe_kernel and validate_kernel_str(hwe_kernel)) or (min_hwe_kernel and validate_kernel_str(min_hwe_kernel)) ): raise ValidationError( "Subarchitecture(%s) must be generic when setting hwe_kernel." % subarch ) ** Changed in: maas Status: Incomplete => New -- 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/1922910 Title: Unable to deploy HWE kernel with sub-arch set to xgene-uboot Status in MAAS: New Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Expired Bug description: When trying to deploy Moonshot nodes, the sub-arch must be set to xgene-uboot for it to be deployed with GA kernel. However, when trying to deploy it with the HWE kernel it will complain that: Subarchitecture(xgene-uboot) must be generic when setting hwe_kernel.
