strange.  'dirty' shouldn't prevent reading it.  normally that's caused
by not doing a complete shutdown, and doesn't actually affect file
system integrity.  Well, it *could* and apparently the file system
driver is being "paranoid".

menuconfig is painful so kudos to going through the process.  I usually
manually edit the files and use 'oldconfig' for kernel mods.  but it's
been a while since I needed to do that [used to do a lot with
customizing Linux on wifi access points back in the day].

and a kernel build on a Pi would be equally painful...

[hopefully you have a really good cross-compile environment set up]
