Topic: Initial ramdisk slow

Hyperbola 0.4 takes a lot to load the ramdisk.
(Libreboot X200 with only root partition encrypted)
How is your mkinitcpio.conf file?

This is mine:

MODULES="i915"
HOOKS="base udev autodetect modconf block filesystems keyboard fsck keymap consolefont encrypt lvm2 shutdown"

I do it this way:

HOOKS="base udev autodetect modconf block encrypt lvm2 filesystems keyboard fsck"

However, it might not work for your use case, I followed a different guide then you,

I followed this guide:

But I also made a few tweaks so... idk.

Re: Initial ramdisk slow

Thanks Zapper for your comment,
I have tried to change the configuration but nothing changes.
For example, removing MODULES="i915" the external monitor starts at the end of the start process and not at the beginning (so I leave it)

The difference between a LIBREBOOT machine and a normal computer are 10/15 seconds of waiting, could it be Grub that needs a modifies?

This is mine grub configuration:

GRUB_DEFAULT=0
GRUB_TIMEOUT=1
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR="Hyperbola"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="loglevel=3 iomem=relaxed"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="cryptdevice=/dev/sda2:lvm"
