Remove unnecessary kernel modules from downloadable initramfs archives #77

Closed frno7 closed 2 years ago

frno7 commented 2 years ago

Kernel modules (*.ko files) are generally entirely dependent on the exact kernel used, and are therefore almost unusable for any other kernel (even the same kernel version having a slightly different .config won’t work).

For details, see also https://github.com/frno7/gentoo-mipsr5900el/issues/5#issuecomment-1117549943.
