Description Stefan Trenker 2023-10-30 20:23:26 UTC

When genkernel is not called with --microcode=no it bails out since the kernel-options it tries to set are no longer available for linux-6.6.y.

It seems --microcode=all is the default. But it does no longer work with kernel 6.6.y

See attached logfile

Comment 2 Stefan Trenker 2023-10-30 20:45:01 UTC

I suggest to simply ignore if the options CONFIG_MICROCODE_AMD and/or CONFIG_MICROCODE_INTEL are no longer available in the kernel .config

And please do not touch the CONFIG_MICROCODE option. At least if it is already set in .config
