Hi again! >I can try some more combinations later as both grub and kernel got >updates in the meantime.
I just did the following test: just boot without adding the kernel commandline parameter. What I got, with… ii grub-pc 2.12-8 amd64 GRand Unified Bootloader, version 2 (PC/BIOS version) ii grub-pc-bin 2.12-8 amd64 GRand Unified Bootloader, version 2 (PC/BIOS modules) ii linux-image-6.12.31-amd64 6.12.31-1 amd64 Linux 6.12 for 64-bit PCs (signed) … was: the kernel starts pretty much immediately (after slow load from USB stick and decompression), switches to the VGA text console and outputs things. After 8s (“crng init done”), there’s an “integritysetup open” call that takes a while (I have put a manual dm-integrity layer below the LUKS on which my LVM resides, as I now do for RAIDs, too). Then I entered my LUKS password and pressed Enter, which is probably the 53s message, it then fsck’d / and mounted it (59s), at which time normal booting continued. Some time afterwards, the kernel switched to fbcon. I’ll have to see how the hiDPI laptop behaves once it arrives, that is, whether the video mode set will be legible enough during initramfs as well (scaled-up VGA text console should probably also do). I did put a “setfont” into the initramfs, but it appears that Linux doesn’t yet know enough before the LUKS prompt to switch the video mode (missing parameter?) unless vga=… was given on the command line, in which case it will have switched early on. bye, //mirabilos -- Thorsten Glaser Linux / Unix Developer Tel.: +49 8457 931096 E-Mail: tgla...@b1-systems.de B1 Systems GmbH Osterfeldstraße 7 / 85088 Vohburg / https://www.b1-systems.de/ GF: Ralph Dehner / Unternehmenssitz: Vohburg / AG: Ingolstadt, HRB 3537
