Hi, since I am using an EFI-boot with NVidia-drivers, which boots from SSD may be my configurations may help: kernel: # # Frame buffer Devices # CONFIG_FB_CMDLINE=y CONFIG_FB_NOTIFY=y CONFIG_FB=y # CONFIG_FIRMWARE_EDID is not set CONFIG_FB_CFB_FILLRECT=y CONFIG_FB_CFB_COPYAREA=y CONFIG_FB_CFB_IMAGEBLIT=y CONFIG_FB_SYS_FILLRECT=y CONFIG_FB_SYS_COPYAREA=y CONFIG_FB_SYS_IMAGEBLIT=y # CONFIG_FB_FOREIGN_ENDIAN is not set CONFIG_FB_SYS_FOPS=y CONFIG_FB_DEFERRED_IO=y CONFIG_FB_MODE_HELPERS=y CONFIG_FB_TILEBLITTING=y # # Frame buffer hardware drivers # # CONFIG_FB_CIRRUS is not set # CONFIG_FB_PM2 is not set # CONFIG_FB_CYBER2000 is not set # CONFIG_FB_ARC is not set # CONFIG_FB_ASILIANT is not set # CONFIG_FB_IMSTT is not set # CONFIG_FB_VGA16 is not set # CONFIG_FB_UVESA is not set # CONFIG_FB_VESA is not set # CONFIG_FB_EFI is not set # CONFIG_FB_N411 is not set # CONFIG_FB_HGA is not set # CONFIG_FB_OPENCORES is not set # CONFIG_FB_S1D13XXX is not set # CONFIG_FB_NVIDIA is not set # CONFIG_FB_RIVA is not set # CONFIG_FB_I740 is not set # CONFIG_FB_LE80578 is not set # CONFIG_FB_MATROX is not set # CONFIG_FB_RADEON is not set # CONFIG_FB_ATY128 is not set # CONFIG_FB_ATY is not set # CONFIG_FB_S3 is not set # CONFIG_FB_SAVAGE is not set # CONFIG_FB_SIS is not set # CONFIG_FB_NEOMAGIC is not set # CONFIG_FB_KYRO is not set # CONFIG_FB_3DFX is not set # CONFIG_FB_VOODOO1 is not set # CONFIG_FB_VT8623 is not set # CONFIG_FB_TRIDENT is not set # CONFIG_FB_ARK is not set # CONFIG_FB_PM3 is not set # CONFIG_FB_CARMINE is not set # CONFIG_FB_SMSCUFX is not set # CONFIG_FB_UDL is not set # CONFIG_FB_IBM_GXT4500 is not set # CONFIG_FB_VIRTUAL is not set # CONFIG_FB_METRONOME is not set # CONFIG_FB_MB862XX is not set CONFIG_FB_SIMPLE=y # CONFIG_FB_SM712 is not set # end of Frame buffer Devices kernel commandline BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-5061700-64-RT root=/dev/nvme0n1p3 ro console=tty1 nomodeset enable_mtrr_cleanup mtrr_spare_reg_nr=6 mtrr_gran_size=64K mtrr_chunk_size=64M These are examples...please adapt to your setup accordingly.
