New initramfs hook that uses LEDs etc. to let us know pmOS booted (when networking and screen don't work)
Created by: ollieparanoid
This idea was brought up the other day in #postmarketOS: An initramfs hook that tries to notify the user with alternative means that the kernel is actually booted:
- let the LEDs blink
- use the vibration motor
- use the flashlight
- ...
When the device does not respond over USB, and the screen does not work either, this would be an easy way to verify that postmarketOS has booted on the device.
