Can you explain what problems you see with that? How does CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE handle initrd improperly? > Only boot a kernel directly from UEFI if you build your own and have > customized it for your hardware. I booted genkernel generated non-customized kernels as well as customized hand-configured kernels using that method. Best regards, Chí-Thanh Christopher Nguyễn
