[Bug 1835660] Re: initramfs unpacking failed

[Ayyappan]

Edit initramfs.conf as su.

Rem out COMPRESS-lz4 line

Run update-initramfs -u - System will return with "COMPRESS parameter
not set".

Now edit initramfs.conf again. Remove the # on COMPRESS=lz4, run again
update-initramfs -u.

It will close without any error. Reboot.

I just did and no more failed message.
