To which position in the menuconfig tree are you referencing?
Have disabled all entries under "Console" in menuconfig but still get the boot delay.
I've thecoreboot  .config in case that this is helpfull, see attached file.

Sure, at your service:

$ make savedefconfig && cat defconfig
CONFIG_USE_OPTION_TABLE=y
CONFIG_COLLECT_TIMESTAMPS=y
CONFIG_VENDOR_LENOVO=y
CONFIG_CBFS_SIZE=0x400000
CONFIG_VGA_BIOS=y
CONFIG_VGA_BIOS_FILE="~/my-coreboot/MyROMs/original/vga.rom"
# CONFIG_POST_IO is not set
# CONFIG_POST_DEVICE is not set

Unfortunately not as I haven't been able to create a 2nd payload in order to read the timstamps from coreinfo.
Coreinfo is shown in the boot menu when hitting ESC, but after launching, the screen goes blank and nothing happens.
Maybe this is related to the fact, that I flashed only 4 MB of the Chip(s) and as such some part of the code is missing (whoch would be in the 8 MB part of the rom-file)?
