I installed Qubes a couple of weeks ago and yesterdays dom0 update causes a kernel panic.  Looking through grub it appears the new kernel is lacking the initramfs image (only the older kernel entries have the grub line "module --nounzip /initramfs-4.19.56-1....img).    Any suggestions on reinstalling the kernel or fixing the issue would be appreciated.

The Reporting bugs page says to use the provided template, and to include the HTML comments in the issue template, but does give any clue about where the issue temple resides or how to use it.



Thanks,
Chuck


PS.  Qubes release 4.0   I installed the RC a few weeks ago, then reinstalled on a SSD drive.

The following dom0 commands fixed the kernel panic reboot issue.

sudo cp -p /boot/vmlinuz-4.19.71-1.pvops.qubes.x86_64 /boot/efi/EFI/qubes/
sudo dracut -f /boot/efi/EFI/qubes/initramfs-4.19.71-1.pvops.qubes.x86_64.img
4.19.71-1.pvops.qubes.x86_64
sudo cp -p /boot/efi/EFI/qubes/initramfs-4.19.71-1.pvops.qubes.x86_64.img /boot/
sudo grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg

https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/software-update-dom0/#kernel-upgrade
shows a similar procedure.
