Public bug reported: 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. ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Incomplete ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Undecided Status: Incomplete ** Also affects: linux (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Undecided Status: 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/1593134 Title: build squashfs into xenial kernels by default Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in linux source package in Xenial: Incomplete 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.
