A file will open asking for your authentication. Provide it.
Step3: Find a line saying COMPRESS=lz4
Step4: Change COMPRESS=lz4 to COMPRESS=gzip
Step5: Save that file and close the file.
Step6: Now type this in the terminal:

=================================================================
sudo update-initramfs -u

=================================================================

It will run some processes. After completion
