Hello,I would like to disable or hide the kernel boot messages. Does anyboby know how to accomplish this? Thanks Posted by Epsilon on May 19 2005,13:41
the kernel doasn't show anything, the hardware autodetection script doas, but why you want to hide this? This tells you what drivers was loaded and if all is ok.I think that it is important to be showed. Posted by dmizzel on May 23 2005,00:46
While that is good advice, I'm sure all of us can think of a few situations where hidding the hardware autodetection script.1. Grandma's computer where she might go into a techno panic from all this jibbity jabbity running across the screen. 2. A kiosk situation where the image of your business is important and an end user would never trouble shoot a failed hardware situation. etc. I would like to know if it's possible and how to do it as well.

The original knoppix livecd had a "splashscreen" function.It is possible that this feature also exists inside DSL. Search Google or the Knoppix web site for information on how to try the splashscreen function. |
