initramfs-tools (0.142ubuntu23) noble; urgency=medium

  [ Daniel van Vugt ]
  * hooks/framebuffer: Only add simple/tiny framebuffer drivers. This is to
    limit the size of initrd when FRAMEBUFFER=y is soon enabled for desktop
    installations (LP: #1970069, #1869655).

  [ Benjamin Drung ]
  * autopkgtest: Increase QEMU timeouts on arm64/armhf
  * hooks/framebuffer:
    - Move adding framebuffer drivers into auto_add_modules
    - Drop looking in $MODULESDIR/initrd/ for kernel modules
    - Support MODULES=dep in framebuffer hook

initramfs-tools (0.142ubuntu22) noble; urgency=medium

  * autopkgtest: update systemd-udevd path from /lib to /usr/lib

initramfs-tools (0.142ubuntu21) noble; urgency=medium

  [ Benjamin Drung ]
  * configure_networking:
    - Increase minimum timeout to 30 seconds
    - Fix configuring BOOTIF when using iSCSI (LP: #2056187)
    - Set interface MTU if provided by the DHCP server (LP: #2056194)
    - log sleep durations before retries
  * Copy /etc/passwd into the initramfs to allow dhcpcd running as dhcpcd user
  * Replace obsolete pkg-config build-dependency by pkgconf

  [ Dan Bungert ]
  * Restore nvdimm and dax pmem-related modules (LP: #1981385)

  Annoying boot messages interfering with splash screen

Bug description:
  [ Impact ]

  Kernel (and systemd) log messages appear during boot for many
  machines, when the user should be seeing only the BIOS logo and/or
  Plymouth splash screens.

  [ Workaround ]

  On most machines you can hide the problem by using these kernel parameters 
together:
    quiet splash loglevel=3 fastboot

  [ Original Description ]

  Since upgrading from 20.04.6 Desktop to 22.04, the boot screen is not
  as clean as it used to be.

  Basically, the flow used to be in 20.04:

  GRUB > Splash screen > Login prompt

  Currently in 22.04:

  GRUB > Splash screen > Messages (in the attached file) > Splash screen
  again for a sec > Login prompt

  All of those messages already existed in 20.04, the difference is that
  they were not appearing during boot.

  I was able to get rid of the "usb" related messages by just adding
  "loglevel=0" in GRUB. Currently is "quiet loglevel=0 splash".

  Regarding the fsck related message, I can get rid of them by adding
  "fsck.mode=skip".

  However, I do not want to just disable fsck or set the loglevel to 0.
  This is not a sustainable solution.

  Something definitely changed here. These messages are not of enough
  relevance to be shown at boot by default, and they should remain
  hidden like they were in Focal.

  Obviously a minor issue, but important to the whole look and feel of
  the OS for desktop.
