FWIW, in case you want to try again: give the upstream text on building
your own kernel a try, maybe it works better for your:

https://docs.kernel.org/admin-guide/quickly-build-trimmed-linux.html

It should work on Fedora (but you might want to install the latest
updates first, there recently was a problem).

Ciao, Thorsten
