grub 2.12 resolution was using a resolution that was not vga without anything in my
settings (in /etc/default/grub I mean)

Now I have the old vga resolution from 10 years ago.

It does boot correctly however but I must wait until framebuffer/driver is up.

Still not fixed in 2.14-2. Visually hardly acceptable.

unbootable, hanging forever in amd gpu initialisation.

Had to boot on rescue, install manually old grub.

Please at least propose solutions!

The board is fairly recent B650E Taichi Lite from 2023, BIOS 12/05/2023
but I wonder if the regression in video is not due to this patch...
