bzip2/lzma: x86 kernel compression support
Impact: Replaces x86 kernel decompressor with new code This is the third part of the bzip2/lzma patch The bzip patch is based on an idea by Christian Ludwig, includes support for compressing the kernel with bzip2 or lzma rather than gzip. Both compressors give smaller sizes than gzip. Lzma's decompresses faster than bzip2. It also supports ramdisks and initramfs' compressed using these two compressors. The functionality has been successfully used for a couple of years by the udpcast project This version applies to "tip" kernel 2.6.28 This part contains: - support for new bzip2 and lzma kernel compression for x86 Signed-off-by: Alain Knaff <alain@knaff.lu> Signed-off-by: H.
