Starting with Linux 4.14.157, 4.9.204, and 4.4.204 stables stopped booting on my system. It can't find the root disk. No config changes in between. I have been bisecting 4.14 and 4.9 with no luck so far. I updated to Ubuntu 19.10 in between. The only other thing I see is CONFIG_GCC_VERSION which is supported starting 4.18. I don't this boot failing issue on 4.19 + up. I am also chasing any links between this config and scripts and tools that generate the initramfs. I am still debugging ... Serious for me since I can no longer test older stables. :( thanks, -- Shuah
