Assuming it's ok that the modules won't always be present - i.e. they're only built on powerpc - the modules will be: nx-compress nx-compress-crypto nx-compress-platform nx-compress-pseries nx-compress-powernv 842-decompress the 842-compress module actually isn't needed; the 842-compress and 842-decompress modules are only the "reference implementation" in software, and due to the specifics of the 842 format they are very painfully slow; 842 is really only suited to be done in custom hardware. The 842-decompress module is needed, because the 842 hardware driver falls back to using it if the hardware fails or is disabled, so that decompression never fails. but including the 842-compress module doesn't hurt anything. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1454687 Title: add NX 842 hw compression patches To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/initramfs-tools/+bug/1454687/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
