This is strange. I just booted an older image and then installed a kernel:
$ file /boot/initrd.img-4.4.0-62-generic /boot/initrd.img-4.4.0-62-generic: LZMA compressed data, streamed $ sudo apt update ... $ sudo apt upgrade ... $ file /boot/initrd.img-4.4.0-6* /boot/initrd.img-4.4.0-62-generic: gzip compressed data, last modified: Thu Mar 9 15:48:51 2017, from Unix /boot/initrd.img-4.4.0-66-generic: gzip compressed data, last modified: Thu Mar 9 15:49:52 2017, from Unix I'm guessing that it comes from "--initramfs-compression lzma" on line 613 of live-build/auto/config in livecd-rootfs; I'd expect this to translate in to some configuration in the built image, but I guess not. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1671536 Title: Default initrd is LZMA compressed, yet rebuilt initramfs are gzip?
