Forgive my ignorance: I'm not understanding what you mean to say here.
Do you mean that Linux fails to build, or that it's failing to boot, or
that some operation you run after booting is failing?  What steps should
I use to reproduce this, what is the expected result, and what happens
instead?

Thanks,
