slackware-current hangs on 'Loading initial ramdisk'
by ganjaplanet from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5BQ7A)
After upgrading slackware-current with slackpkg into kernel 5.4.83,
the boot process hangs with the 'Loading initial ramdisk' message which blanks after a few minutes and nothing more happens
I've booted from the installation USB, mounted everything under /mnt and chrooted to /mnt,
then i tried to rebuild initrd image with `mkinitrd -c -k 5.4.83 -m btrfs:ext4` followed by
`grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg`, but nothing helps
my /boot is ext4 while / (root partition) is btrfs @ subvolume
thx
