Hello,

I have setup a Laptop with 3K display (2880 x 1800 pixels).
In Grub I can set the Resolution with gfxmode.

Is there an option to setup the resolution in the Initramfs (initrd)?

Best regards

Hello,

(I 've never tried this)

Perhaps you could look at this paragraph of the Archlinux wiki:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/kernel_mode_setting#Forcing_modes_and_EDID>

I set the linux console mode with via a grub config option in
/etc/default/grub. i.e.

GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=keep

Which I believe stops grub changing the display mode before starting
linux, and linux itself just uses whatever mode the hardware is set to.
