log not showing during boot, even with: debug nosplash --verbose

By Emma Valentine

this is the whole custom line I boot with:

linux /vmlinuz-5.8.0-41-generic udev.event-timeout=5 root=/dev/mapper/LvmMyGroup-mywhatever ro debug nosplash $vt_handoff --verbose

this is the latest kernel
this problem is happening since a long time tho, I think since kernel 5.4 or earlier...
I use that timeout because on earlier kernels it was taking 6 minutes just to boot. Not sure if needed now tho but causes no harm.

am I doing something wrong?

Also, I want to see the log DURING the boot time, not after. So that if it takes too long to boot, I can have some clue what the problem is.

Btw, if I hit Ctrl+Alt+Del just after it starts loading that boot entry, and let the boot happen again, it will show the log, that is the most weird thing. I did not test this with the latest kernel tho, as it is already failing to work as expected from the beginning.
