Okay, understand that. I tried to find it on some reliable site but they just
delete old packages without anything like ALA. Maybe 4.5rc6 vanilla kernel
would work but I'm not sure whether they used some patches etc. BTW the page is
in English (and other languages), there's a flag in the top right corner to
change language.

Yeah, I have 2 minute timeout in bootloader and wait. Then it works.

The magical kernel just works without reboot cycles, changing parameters etc.
It doesn't need any user interaction.

Same here.
