Thanks a Lot Grant!!

Nice to know you never suffered issues…

I would to this way with config but, later genkerneled and loaded through menuconfig the file…

I prefer genkernel Because provides flexibility but creates you an initramfs for returning from sleep/hibernate… although I later change slightly that initramfs lol 🤣
