I can confirm that with -O2 I get a booting kernel with netconsole output using the .config I originally posted.
However the machine does not finish booting, even with -O2. In the netconsole dmesg I get to the point "Run /sbin/init as init process" but that's it, no on-screen ouput on the laptop itself... So there seem to be 2 issues.
And sorry for my custom .config! Forgot that it was tailored for my Lenovo Thinkpad A275. Next time I'll try to replicate my issues with a more generic config (hopefully) bootable on a VM.
Regards,
Erhard
