Add driver to PXE server

pe flag

I have a PXE server to automatically install ubuntu. with this configuration:

  1. GRAB config: https://pastebin.com/WxHnSacq
  2. UEFI
  3. vmlinuz and initrd from the official image of ubuntu 20.04 server

it became necessary to install the system with PCE on laptops, via USB - RJ45 this device uses a driver like this: https://pastebin.com/zRPaMEGy I try to add it, but I get a panic kernel (VFS: Cannot open root device "ram0" or unknown-block(0,0): error -6 ) even if I rebuild the initrd without changing the files, I still get the panic kernel I rebuild it like this:

a) unpack the initrd:

b) added the /lib/modules/5.4.0-88-generic/kernel/drivers/net/usb folder

c) packed it back according to the instructions from here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Initramfs

cd initrd-test
find . | cpio -o -H newc > ../initrd-test.img
cd ..
gzip initrd-test.img
cp initrd-test.img.gz initrd-test.img

what am I doing wrong? can eat ready-made initrd? I found рwe-initrd on the ubuntu image, but it doesn't solve my problem sorry for my bad english

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
