#191 Missing zstd support for EROFS
Opened by ngompa. Modified

Open
Close Issue

Support for Zstandard compression in EROFS is apparently disabled by default in RHEL at the moment.

This needs to be corrected as the failure mode for live images using erofs+zstd is a total crash and you don't easily get to see the error in things like VMs as the VM shuts off when the kernel crashes.

Here's the error observed:

This should be fixed in upstream RHEL (for Alt Images) and the Hyperscale kernel.
