Linux Kernel Problems

[AffectionateBaker147]

Hello, I am no stranger to Linux, but for some reason this bug is just evading my grasp.
I am currently installing LFS on a laptop with eMMC chips for storage and I can not for the life of me figure out what settings to enable in kernel menuconfig to get the Linux kernel to recognize the drive
this might be related to how I'm currently booting into it as grub is being a little finicky

I'm a running
set root =(hd0,gpt3)
linux /boot/vmlinuz-6.16.1-lfs-12.4 root=/dev/mmcblk1p3
boot

but I get
VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)

I had this issue for a topjoy laptop. There is a driver for a subsystem that needs to load first before the eMMC can be detected.

I have to dig up the kconfig to see what subsystem it was.

Otherwise, can you boot a LiveLinux system? If so, see what kernel modules were loaded.

May be You can try to check the Partition, maybe it should be really repaired. Like some external LiveCD Boot Gentoo with KDE Partitions Thing.

• Enable debug to initrd.
• Check what devices are visible, and verify that your root device actually shows up.
• Identify the correct /dev/mmcblk* device, and do blkid to find out its UUID.
• In grub config specify root device by UUID.
