init system is failing

Hello. I'm writing this post in requesting assistance booting Devuan GNU/Linux on an Android device. This is an ARM64 device. Upon running the init system, the system doesn't mount devtmpfs. The init system is failing. I do have CONFIG_DEVTMPFS set.

Do you happen to know which are the required kernel configurations for a successful boot? I believe I'm missing a kernel configuration, since I had success on another Android device. This other device is ARM-based.

Unfortunately, I don't have much logs to read. And I know for a fact the init system is failing, since running

adb ls /dev/

returns an empty directory. Do you happen to know of a method to show init debug messages?

From a chroot environment, I see the init system doesn't mount devtmpfs either.
