Most likely the missing support for initramfs. |
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
The first 8 or 9 attempts I compile *without* initramfs support, and |
| 51 |
the same thing happened. |

I hope you don't mind waiting. It's already 20:00 here, and now I have |
| 89 |
to go home. |

Anyways, thanks for guiding me :) |
