Hello everyone,
So I've been using the slarm64-current-riscv64-xfce-visionfive_2-6.1.56-build-20231008.img image on my VisionFive 2 and in terms of getting it to run it works. However I've been trying to update the Kernel to the provided 6.5.5 packages (or the official repository kernel packages which seems to be a bad idea). However everytime I touch the kernel in any way the system stops booting with the following error messages:

Now what I did was I've installed the new packages from the mirror for VisionFive 2 and rebuild the Uinitrd using the initrd script in /boot/
I did check all the symlinks in /boot and they looked fine, only difference I could find was between /boot/dtbs/ and the corresponding kernel version directories which had a different layout and different files.
Now I have two questions regarding this:
1.) is there any documentation on the correct procedure for this board so I don't have to run with a trial and error approach in the future
2.) is there a way to save my installation?
Sorry for acting a bit like a dummy here, but it's a bit difficult to find the right way to treat this board and the current builds ^^'
I've also blacklisted the kernel packages in slackpkg thinking it could help to mitigate this error since slackpkg and the riscv64 repositories have no concept of the VisionFive 2 kernel build I think
kind regards,
DesRoin
