Should the usual "Uncompressing kernel" message show up automatically
then? I don't think it did, which is why I mentioned that "TO DO". I
almost always run with DEBUG_LL enabled and earlyprintk in the kernel
command-line, but I should double-check I didn't accidentally drop it
when testing this patch.
