|    Bug#1119673: error: not xen image    |

      XPost: linux.debian.bugs.dist       From: rrosner5@gmail.com              This is a multi-part message in MIME format.       Package: linux-image-amd64       Version: 6.12.48-1       Severity: important       Tags: patch                     Dear Maintainer,       like already mentioned in Bug#1098798, the Linux kernels in Trixie that are       installed by linux-image-amd64 are not capable of booting on a Xen hypervisor.       This is an issue with the config used to compile the kernel. The error message       that's produced is                     Loading Linux 6.12.48-amd64 ...       error: not xen image.       Loading initial ramdisk ...       error: you need to load the kernel first.              Press any key to continue...              VM type is "pv".                     After asking on the Project Xen mailing list I can now say with certainty that       the offending config is "CONFIG_KERNEL_ZSTD". Disabling it lets the kernel       boot again. The cause is pvgrub not supporting the required zstdio iofilter,       which supposedly is        being fixed right now with grub-2.14~rc1.              Best regards              Richard                                                                    |
