Comment 42 for bug 1873809

@Stéphane, I have now followed your steps from commant #38 (was using the official ubuntu image before with cloud-init and that does a initrd-less boot first which is successful for me) but this does not show me the error you see either. And a break=top does work (with some complaints about tty1 which is expected due to the missing efi-fb).
I double-checked the initramfs compression setting and that is lz4.

This is rather weird. I will try on a different hw but that really should not be relevant. For double checking: which LXD version are you using? I am on the focal/stable/4.0 stream:

lxd 4.0.1 15682 4.0/stable/… canonical✓ -
