I edited /etc/default/grub
and changed the line:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"
to:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=""
Then ran sudo update-grub
and rebooted.
Ramdisk messages display like this during boot:
But the boot messages display correctly:
If I go into "recovery mode", Ramdisk boot messages display correctly.
Is there a setting I am missing? I did not have this problem when I was
running Ubuntu 18.04.6.
As requested, Here is my CPU info:
inxi -C
CPU:

>Solution :
You will likely need to add the name of your video driver module to /etc/initramfs-tools/modules
:
-
Edit
/etc/initramfs-tools/modules
withsudo
:sudo {editor of choice} /etc/initramfs-tools/modules
Note: Be sure to replace
{editor of choice}
with your editor of choice. -
Add the name of your video driver module to the end of the file. Here is a short list outlining the most common values:
Name Graphics Adapter amdgpu
for modern AMD-based systems (use radeon
if you have something from before 2010 or need the legacy ATI driver)i915
for Intel graphics nouveau
for the open-source Nouveau driver mgag200
for the old-school Matrox graphics nvidia nvidia_modeset nvidia_uvm nvidia_drm
for Nvidia … because why have one option when you can have four? 🤪 -
Save the file and exit
-
Update
initramfs
:sudo update-initramfs -u
-
Reboot
This will give you everything you need.
Note for people using full disk encryption:
If you’ve also removed quiet
from GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT
, you will have a very 90’s era experience when unlocking the volume. The nice password screen is replaced with a simple text-based "Enter password" after some of the preliminary boot messages are displayed.
