What is loading long time? OS? https://opensource.com/article/20/9/systemd-startup-configuration

sorry for not clarifying.
once I have changed the boot.cmd and added to the armbianEnv.txt
extraargs=drm_kms_helper.edid_firmware=HDMI-A-1:edid/1024x600.bin video=HDMI-A-1:1024x600@60
OS loading long time about 30s to 1min 

once it loaded then touchscreen and display works perfectly.

I found the problem but I don't know how to get reed of it.
booting to the desktop should start and then reboots the OS after that desktop works.

found easier display modifying
commet out  #setenv disp_mode "1024x600p60"
mkimage -C none -A arm -T script -d /boot/boot.cmd /boot/boot.scr

 

then set it armbianConfig.txt

disp_mode "1024x600p60"

extraargs=drm_kms_helper.edid_firmware=HDMI-A-1:edid/1024x600.bin video=HDMI-A-1:1024x600@60

 

in this way you be abele to change easily 5" and 7" lcd displays - just change the display resolution
however the OS loading is still long time
I understand drm_kms_helper generates the 1024x600.bin file but it does not save it or I just can't find it.
Does anyone know where is it?

Hi there,
I have a problem with startup boot loader showing script
when I added to the armbianConfig.txt file

extraargs=drm_kms_helper.edid_firmware=HDMI-A-1:edid/1024x600.bin video=HDMI-A-1:1024x600@60

I lost boot startup loading script text on display - does not show anything until the desktop loaded.
ones is desktop loaded it is very good resolution - want to keep that.
but I need startup loading showing something image or startup loading text.
Does anybody knowing how to do that?
