GRUB fails when kernel is LZMA/BZIP2-compressed

[Ersin Akinci]

Hi all,

Is anyone aware of GRUB failing to boot a system when the Linux kernel
is compressed using LZMA or BZIP2?  If so, is this a bug in GRUB or
the kernel?  I'm using kernel 2.6.31 and GRUB 0.97 and I'm trying to
make a boot floppy, but unless I select GZIP compression in the kernel
config, GRUB hangs for a little after loading the kernel and initramfs
image and then reboots the computer.  No kernel printk's come up.

Thanks,
Ersin
