Yes, it boots fine, but slow.

I am now able to boot the VM image without an initrd, editing
`/boot/grub/grub.cfg`, which saves a little time, as the initrd does not
need to be loaded by GRUB and later dealt with (unpack/run) by the Linux
kernel.
Kind regards,
Paul
PS: I know, there are more things to speed up the boot time, but this
change is quite easy.
