The kernel that d-i uses for the cdrom and netboot images is already compressed: root@stadler:/srv/d-i/debian-installer/installer/build/tmp/netboot# file vmlinuz-4.9.0-2-sparc64 vmlinuz-4.9.0-2-sparc64: gzip compressed data, max compression, from Unix root@stadler:/srv/d-i/debian-installer/installer/build/tmp/netboot# Adrian -- .''`.
