In the xz ,, in /usr/share/libalpm/90-linux.hook
(linux-5.8.14-1-aarch64.pkg.tar.xz)
is the line,,,, Exec = /usr/bin/mkinitcpio -p linux
-p means that you should look in /etc/mkinitcpio.d for a file linux,,
and maybe edit it
BTW, in 5.8.14 panel-simple is builtin, not a module
I don't know about 5.7
-----
and check /etc/mkinitrdcpio.conf,,, also its man page
Thanks wdt.
I was able to modify the mkinitrdcpio.conf file and at least now the initramfs file is created without errors after installing linux-pinebookpro kernel. The config file had an entry to load up some kernel modules including panel_edp. I changed it to panel_simple and the initramfs file got created. However, now the system boots up from kernel 5.7 with a dark screen. I'm guessing it's looking for panel_edp and not finding anything.
Any ideas?
