When will the converter support Ubuntu 20/22?

I am trying to convert an Ubuntu 20 OS into a VM. Essentially a straight p2v. 

 

It fails with the error:

FAILED: An error occurred during the conversion: 'GrubInstaller::InstallGrub: /usr/lib/vmware-converter/installGrub.sh failed with return code: 127, and message: FATAL: kernel too old Error running vmware-updateGrub.sh through chroot into /mnt/p2v-src-root Command:
chroot "/mnt/p2v-src-root" /vmware-updateGrub.sh "GRUB2" "(hd0)" "(hd0,2)" /vmware-device.map "grub2-install" '

I suspect this is related to the OS version being too new, as opposed to being to old.

 

Any help ?

Thanks.
