Simple human error :-/ |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
When I did: |
| 42 |
cd linux |
| 43 |
cp ../linux-old_kernel/.config . |
| 44 |
mount /boot/ |
| 45 |
make oldconfig |
| 46 |
|
| 47 |
New entries showed up. Instead of pressing "enter" I made a mistake and press "Y" several times. |
| 48 |
This enabled some feature in the new kernel that shouldn't be there; example: "CONFIG_KCSAN = y" |
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
Redoing the process just by hitting "enter" soled the problem; new kernel boot as it should. |
