While the proposed solution of changing the order of things would reduce the chances of things going wrong as described, it's not a panacea: there's a chance the GA kernel would be also brought in within that transaction. It's highly unlikely, granted, but it could happen.
I think there's two things that should occur here: 1/ adjust autopkgtest operation order 2/ think of a better way for users to decide which kernel they'll boot on and implement that in zipl ;) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2116165 Title: Failing to boot requested kernel on s390x To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/autopkgtest/+bug/2116165/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
