[Voyage-linux] unstable kernel config / build problem [SOLVED]

[William M. Brack]

That version compiles without problem.  I also took your config, added a
few more options, changed almost everything (including all the disk
stuff) to 'module', and successfully built an initrd version (but the
initrd.img is almost 5Mb) which boots ok on my Wrap board.  I'll continue
playing with it for awhile (trying to improve the 'customisation' stuff
and reduce the overall size), and eventually put something on the Wiki
when it's in better shape.
