So obviously this cannot work. If you enable initramfs support in Buildroot, then Buildroot will make sure to have a dummy rootfs.cpio when the kernel is first built, will make sure to set CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE to the correct value, and will rebuild the kernel image at the end of the build with the final rootfs.cpio. Therefore, there is no bug per se: there is just a mis-use of the initramfs support. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
