Genkernel does not find my firmware anymore. The files are all there, but as soon as I add relative paths with subdirectories (e.g. amdgpu) it ends with the following:

Code:
genkernel --luks --lvm initramfs --firmware
* Gentoo Linux Genkernel; Version 4.2.1
* Using genkernel configuration from '/etc/genkernel.conf' ...
* Running with options: --luks --lvm initramfs --firmware
* ERROR: --firmware-files contains value 'iwlwifi-8265-36.ucode amdgpu/vega10_acg_smc.bin amdgpu/vega10_me.bin amdgpu/vega10_rlc.bin amdgpu/vega10_sos.bin amdgpu/vega10_asd.bin amdgpu/vega10_mec.bin amdgpu/vega10_sdma.bin amdgpu/vega10_uvd.bin amdgpu/vega10_ce.bin amdgpu/vega10_mec2.bin amdgpu/vega10_sdma1.bin amdgpu/vega10_vce.bin amdgpu/vega10_gpu_info.bin amdgpu/vega10_pfp.bin amdgpu/vega10_smc.bin' which was not found in '/lib/firmware'!
* Please consult '/var/log/genkernel.log' for more information and any
* errors that were reported above.


Anybody else having the same issue?

Hi
Quote:

USE="initramfs" emerge -1av linux-firmware
grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

This will automatically create--hopefully a microcode initrd in /boot for amd.
Then NO need to invoke genkernel with --firmware option because grub will do the loading.

Computer says no.

That is at least what lsinitrd tells me. I had to revert to the previous genkernel version to fix it.

The syntax has been changed, https://gitweb.gentoo.org/proj/genkernel.git/commit/?id=9722fb1b99011c720459fa5f11e9b78929b060ac

All you have to do is passing a comma-separated list instead of using spaces.
