yes, probably. But it is not really defined anywhere... how does this
Makefile work?
In drivers/hid/Makefile there is a line:
obj-$(CONFIG_HID_MICROSOFT) += hid-microsoft.o
This depends on HID_USB, we don't have USB on Amiga so I add:
# CONFIG_USB_HID is not set
to config.amiga, but then the build fails here, just as when I edit the
subarches that should be built:
debian/bin/gencontrol.py

Maybe that is the real problem I am facing. And I always thought python
produces usable error messages...

Yes, it is built as a module, but the build still fails. I removed some
video and network drivers, some filesystems which we do not use on the
buildds, but the kernel size was just reduced by a little bit. So in the
long run, maybe we do have to fix amiboot so that we can still use the full
memory?
