Seems Debian comments out "CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE_DEFERRED_TAKEOVER" and Liquorix doesn't.
Good findings.
Maybe try this kernel boot parameter:

Code: Select all

fbcon=nodefer
to disabled "deferred takeover" of the framebuffer,
which may help to show the virtual console.

I'm putting together a what works and what doesn't list regarding the switching to a tty console.
(work in progress)


What works:
Booting to systemd regardless of the machine (BIOS/UEFI) or kernel (Debian/Liquorix)
Booting to sys-v with BIOS and ANY 6.6.x kernel
Booting to sys-v with UEFI and only the Debian 6.6.x kernel


What doesn't:
Booting to sys-v with UEFI and any Liquorix 6.6.x kernel


Current fixes for the sys-v, UEFI and Liquorix 6.6.x kernel:
Remove splash from kernel parameter
or
Remove quiet from kernel parameter
or
Add fbcon=nodefer to the kernel parameter
This is my Fluxbox . There are many others like it, but this one is mine. My Fluxbox is my best friend. It is my life.
I must master it as I must master my life. Without me, my Fluxbox is useless. Without my Fluxbox, I am useless.
