Does kexec-tools support bzip2-compressed bzImages? I'm trying the latest
git master against this kernel....
http://packages.debian.org/sid/amd64/linux-image-2.6.32-trunk-amd64/download
...but am having no success. I'm assuming that it must be because the
kernel-section is bzip2 compressed because gzip/lzma seems to be explicitly
supported in the master branch's commits.
