Any kernel I compile gets stuck on the "loading initial ramdisk" stage. It tried it multiple different ways and the result is always the same. Any advice on what I can do to find out what's going on, would be greatly appreciated
More info: I'm using stable. The most recent attempt was basically as outlined in the most recent "Debian Administrator's Handbook". Concretely, installing linux-source (the one with the debian patches [4.19]), extracting it in another directory, using the kernel config from /boot/config-the-stock-kernel, make deb-pkg, and finally dpkg -i theheaders theimage I've tried a few other methods, too, like the method in the debian kernel handbook, etc... I don't think it's a problem with the initrd because I inspected it (zcat / cpio / etc) and its not missing any files present in the stock initrd that works Thanks!
