Dear community,
I went a little step forward but I'm still confused: by building the
derivation of linux-modules in the store (for linux-libre) I've
obtained the full list of modules that must be available for initrd to
work (why, it's still not clear).
Now, the #:extra-options key in my custom linux package looks like this
#:extra-options
(append
`(;; Required by gnu/build/linux-modules

("CONFIG_USB_STORAGE" . m)

(@@ (gnu packages linux) %default-extra-linux-options))
I was expecting to see a successful build of linux-modules this time
but, instead, I've obtained another fail, this time due to module
"isci" being not present.
Funny thing is that module isci is produced with CONFIG_SCSI_ISCI,
which is present in my config list!
I've stopped the kernel build after the config phase and I've
inspected the resulting .config file. There's no evidence of
CONFIG_SCSI_ISCI in there, not even "# CONFIG_SCSI_ISCI is not set".
It's not clear why this happens with my custom build and not with linux-libre...
Can you help me debug this issue?
Moreover, where is created the list of module required by "linux-modules" ?
Regards
