Hello Adam,

Adam Van Ymeren <adam@vany.ca> skribis:

Out of curiosity, what=E2=80=99s the current and target kernel versions?

Like Danny wrote, =E2=80=98check-device-initrd-modules=E2=80=99 can have fa=
lse positives
as it is, in which case you have to use =E2=80=98--skip-checks=E2=80=99.

We could arrange to not have false positives, but the UX would be a
little less good because we=E2=80=99d first need to build the target kernel=
.  So
I wonder how frequent the situation you experienced is.

Thanks for your report!

Ludo=E2=80=99.
