I've followed instructions for running distro provided kernel, and I've successfully booted into 3.2 provided by Wheezy. When I try to boot into backported 3.10 I get this error message:

Looking at the error I'd suggest either the kernel is in an unsupported compression format or doesn't have xen support. The latest Linode kernel is 3.11, is there a reason you're using the stock ones?

`file` command on both vmiluz files returns 'bzImage' and on both image files returns gzip. Is there a way to more reliably determine if indeed compression is wrong and ways to rectify it.

Reason I'm trying other kernels is because I want lxc and aufs.

(Though on furtherer inspection it seems that 3.2 kernel has what I need, I was under impression that I need 3.8+)
