Hello,
Recently I’ve been starting to get this very annoying RDRAND error, that I’m not yet entirely sure if its affecting my boot time or not.
I searched for solutions, and came across a grub command called “nordrand” that worked on my Ubuntu but not on Manjaro.
I believe the issue is somehow related to my AMD CPU from all the reading I’ve been doing ever since the error started.
Here’s my system’s info:
sudo inxi --admin --verbosity=7 --filter --no-host --width ✔
