booster VS pcileech-fpga

People should stop using plain passwords to protect data and switch to something better.oster/ + Yubikey

Change from mkinitcpio to booster. It's faster and produce smaller images.

Neither, use booster.

Booster is an initramfs - a type of software that runs early during the boot process and helps to setup system, e.g. perform disk unlock, load extra drivers, setup ZFS filesystem, and so on.

I don't have high hopes that this will change in mkinitcpio, but perhaps you could bring it up with booster (which copied the mkinitcpio hooks and removal scripts)

This is my personal preference, but consider switching to booster.

initramfs: booster - TPM2 support, way faster than mkinitcpio, autodiscovering root partition

Note I'm using booster, so assuming you're using the default mkinitcpio you probably want /boot/initramfs-linux.img. Also, don't forget to modify if your ESP isn't mounted at /boot like mine.

Booster initramfs generator supports TPM, Yubikey and Network binding so you can easily protect your data using the strategy you want.

GPT table detection has higher priority at booster code. But for some reason it does not identify your partition table as GPT. Filed a github bug for it https://github.com/anatol/booster/issues/119

The closest thing I can think of are hardware cheating modules that use DMA vulnerabilities to read system memory but since the display buffer is usually maintained by your GPU then I doubt this would be viable.
