Nate Graham b637e7fc02 Return to the vanilla kernel
Our choice of the Zen kernel was a bit random and speculative. So far we
have a report that it hurts something, and no reports that it helps
anything.

Over time the differences between the Zen kernel and the vanilla one
have dwindled, and I can barely find an up-to-date list of the
differences without looking through source code.

I would consider the upstream vanilla sources to be safer and more
trustworthy, and I expect will be much easier to get through shim
review. Let's return to them.

Test it in a Virtual Machine

If you want to boot the KDE Linux .raw image in a virtual machine (like QEMU/virt-manager or VirtualBox) for local testing, ensure your VM is configured to use UEFI firmware instead of the default Legacy BIOS. Without UEFI enabled, the image will fail to boot. For detailed setup instructions, refer to the Installing in a Virtual Machine Wiki Page.
