I had a similar problem, check to see if the RAM is ok but the problem
might be due to something else.

I was able to make it work thanks to this e-mail:

https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/10/19/271


I changed to

CONFIG_MODVERSIONS=n

But naively applying the patches mentioned in the e-mail did not work for me
and I haven't had the time to look further into the problem and give
relevant
feedback to the thread.

I would suggest you to compile ssd and ps2 keyboard drivers built in, so even if some goes wrong on initrd you may still mount rootfs and have keyboard working. The "Unknown symbol" may mean that something was wrong in kernel compilation.
