Created attachment 293195 [details]
kernel config next-20201026

device: Turris Omnia (armv7l)
root FS: BTRFS

regulatory.db located on the node at /lib/firmware/regulatory.db

kernel compiled with all-in (no kmods) - kconfig attached

according to the dmesg timestamps the loading of regulatory.db is attempted prior than the root FS being mounted and subsequent fails:

It does not seem logical that loading of regulatory.db is attempted prior the root is mounted.
