I'm trying to build the 4.13.2 kernel for void linux to get the Vega drivers and I can't get it to boot.
Build process:
cp /boot/config-4.12 .config yes "" | make oldconfig make nconfig Changed processor type Include ext4 by default Made sure AMD drivers are included make -j32 bzImage modules make modules_install System.map /boot/System.map-4.13.2 arch/x86/boot/bzImage /boot/vmlinuz-4.13.2 .config /boot/config-4.13.2 dracut -f /boot/initramfs-4.13.2.img 4.13.2 update-grub I tried to base the config from the existing one, which boots okay.
After a while it drops into the dracut debug shell. dmesg is full of "Scanning for all btrfs devices" until the message "Could not boot". Neither /dev/nvme* nor /dev/disk/by-uuid exists.
fstab:
/dev/nvme0n1p1 swap swap sw 0 0 /dev/nvme0n1p2 / ext4 defaults 0 1 /dev/nvme0n1p3 /home ext4 defaults 0 2 tmpfs /tmp tmpfs defaults,nosuid,nodev 0 0 I did get some errors when creating initramfs, but I don't see how they are related:
