hooks: ensure fix for entropy hang at boot is part of the image #52

Closed mvo5 closed 6 years ago

mvo5 commented 6 years ago

Right now the boot of core18 with kernel 4.15 may hang because the kernel has not enough entropy in early boot yet but libuuid is using getrandom() for the uuid generation. When parted is used in early boot to resize the disk this lead to a hang.

After further debugging this is non-sense. The fix needs to go into the kernel initramfs - all they need to do is rebuild their kernel (with our image ppa but that is already part of the build afaik).

huzzah for non-sense aversion
