Description Adam J 2023-11-03 23:49:16 UTC
Hi folks
I'm compiling new kernel which I downloaded from anogit.freedesktop.org
The version I try to compile is 6.6.0-rc2.
After runninga
genkernel --menuconfig all
and exiting menu I get a message below this text. I checked that the old config file has 
both options CONFIG_MICROCODE_INTEL=y and CONFIG_MICROCODE_AD=y in the file.

With the same installation of genkernel I was able to compile linux-6.5.0-rc7 without any problem.


Any advice?
Thank you so much!
