Ah, sorry. When I renamed the Image I messed up the kernel version in the
filename, but I did confirm via "uname -r" that I was running the
correct version: 6.8.0-rc2-ga551a7d7af93.

In that case, it's interesting that I still run into the problem with
the defconfig. One thing I failed to mention and perhaps is relevant
considering your result, is that I didn't copy the modules into the disk
image, so the FVP was running just with was built into the kernel.

That was actually the main reason for me to use a custom config:
I didn't want to have to deal with kernel modules, so I created a config
that didn't have any.
