Hi!
I use systemd-boot and have an encrypted root partition so I am asked for password every time I boot.
The problem is that password prompt is very hard to see due to a very low brightness setting.
When I enter the password the brightness becomes normal almost immediately.
I guess I have to add some module to mkinicpio so it'll get into initramfs, but I don't know witch one exactly.
I have the following up there now:
MODULES="dm_mod dm_crypt ext4 aes_x86_64 sha256 sha512 nvme i915 intel_agp"
HOOKS="base udev autodetect modconf block keyboard keymap consolefont encrypt resume filesystems fsck"

Try adding the systemd hook (and remove the udev hook, that functionality will be replaced).

Thank you for your response!
Unfortunately, this didn't help. After applying suggested changes system failed to boot with message
A start job is running for /dev/disk/by-uuid/[my root partition id]
After that I tried to change other hooks to systemd-style ones but the result is still the same:
HOOKS="base systemd autodetect modconf block keyboard sd-vconsole sd-encrypt fsck filesystems"
My systemd-boot entry file looks like this:
title Arch ck skylake
linux /vmlinuz-linux-ck-skylake
initrd /intel-ucode.img
initrd /initramfs-linux-ck-skylake.img
options cryptdevice=UUID=4bcc9a7f-f2eb-49bd-b32a-5c8de3e05d32:root root=UUID=9c93363a-a872-4e76-979f-3710b8a84e90 resume=UUID=1131b2d3-43dc-46b2-8be9-d65bf45313bd rw quiet sysrq_always_enabled=1
Maybe something wrong with it?

You have to update your kernel line to use the systemd rd. nomenclature. The wiki page has the details.

Thanks, jasonwryan!
I managed to switch to sd-encrypt, but the brightness was still very low on start. I just increased it in BIOS settings and now it is OK.
