neutro Posted February 7, 2004 Report Share Posted February 7, 2004 During Mandrake 9.1 boot-up, one typically sees a white and blue splashscreen with a "Welcome to Linux" line, and the result of init scripts running. However by default, we don't see the content of /var/log/dmesg being displayed during kernel bootstrap / initialization. Is there a way to make that appear during bootup? Or generally, how do we configure what we see during boot-up? In Mandrake 9.1, I only see a way to change the splash screen appearance / theme in Mandrake Control Center -> Boot -> DrakBoot.

Guest iphoting Posted February 8, 2004 Report Share Posted February 8, 2004 Go to your lilo.conf and in your kernel entry, look for the append line. Remove the quiet option from there and save. Then, lilo -v Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
