Features from Linux kernel that is used by LibreElec

Hello,

just bumped into the issue that it doesn't matter what kernel config I use for LibreElec (practically wanted to take over the same kernel config

for my RockChip device I was using successfully up until now, but the system doesn't boot completely with that).

Is there any guide which lists what is the minimum featureset from the Linux kernel that is needed for LibreElec to work?

Thanks,

If your current kernel configuration is based on one that has been working before, the kernel is probably just find and your boot problems have some other reason.

The answer would be device and kernel specific (as is the nature of kernels) so the best source of documentation is our GitHub repo. We are not as minimal as we started out, but we're still a lightweight distro.
