Re: Kernel 5.15 Amiga PCMCIA apne driver not working

[Michael Schmitz <schmitzmic@gmail.com>]

Hi Carlos,

even 7 MB uncompressed seems a little big to me (if using modules for 
anything not essential to boot).

If you can send me your .config (or a link to download the kernel image 
package), I'll compare with what I've used for v5.15.

The tricky part might be generating the initrd image in the cross build 
setup - the script does not have an option to search for kernel image 
and modules outside the cross build hosts' root fs AFAICS. You may have 
to hack mkinitramfs or manually extract an existing initrd (cpio 
archiive format) and repack after replacing the modules directory.

Cheers,

	Michael
