Ok, that looks much better now with the second patch: ``` Linux version 5.1.15-dirty (root@rx2800-i2) (gcc version 7.3.0 (Gentoo 7.3.0-r3 p1.4)) #2 SMP Tue Jun 25 13:11:38 CEST 2019 EFI v2.10 by HP: efi: SALsystab=0xdfdd63a18 ACPI 2.0=0x3d3c4014 HCDP=0xdffff8798 SMBIOS=0x3d368000 booting generic kernel on platform dig PCDP: v3 at 0xdffff8798 earlycon: uart8250 at I/O port 0x4000 (options '115200n8') printk: bootconsole [uart8250] enabled ACPI: Early table checksum verification disabled ACPI: RSDP 0x000000003D3C4014 000024 (v02 HP ) ACPI: XSDT 0x000000003D3C4580 000124 (v01 HP RX2800-2 00000001 01000013) [...] Trying to unpack rootfs image as initramfs...
