Bug Description

I've symlinked /lib/systemd/system/reboot.target to /lib/systemd/system/kexec.target and everything works fine except my framebuffer screen which on very initial screen with full disk encryption password starts to floating horizontally. I'm able to use it, after blindly typing password everything works fine, but I'm worried that something not initialized at this stage may break hardware, and it just doesn't look good.
