Bug 811007

is the font in the initramfs?

# lsinitrd <image> | fgrep ter-112n

Absolutely:

$ ./lsinitrd.sh | grep ter-112n

can you add "rd.debug" to the kernel command line and attach /run/initramfs/init.log

This is still on my radar, you will get some debug output soonish.

It most likely makes sense for me to test this against HEAD?

sure, if you want

This is still an issue with 022. set_font() never happens.

Here we go to LUKS decryption already and rest of the log is unrelated.

I also wonder why I'm forced to do rd.driver.post=fbcon for the module to load at all. I would expect it to be loaded automatically by udev. Or am I missing something?

Proposed patch

Does this patch help?

Yes, this makes font switch work. Thanks!
