New comment by chili-b on void-packages repository https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/34035#issuecomment-967249457 Comment: I might be experiencing the same problem (booting 5.15.1 hangs at "loading initial ramdisk"). I'm running on an intel cpu with the proprietary microcode from the `intel-ucode` package and an nvidia gpu with the proprietary drivers from the `nvidia` package. I do *not* have this problem on my thinkpad x200, which boots with no issues under linux 5.15.1 although it did seem to take a little longer than normal before advancing past "loading initial ramdisk" (this could just be my imagination)
