After Leopard Assist got loading stuff on screen

Dear Listers,

Using Leopard Assist causes the display of the white on black type that you can not stop or print or save and appears to replace the graphic form with the OS and the progress gage.

Is this what it is doing and how do you get it to quit?

What has happened is that the system is set to boot by default in 'Verbose' mode, which is the same as if you held down the V key while booting.

It does no damage whatsoever (I have all mine set to do this by default.)

to fix this run (in a Terminal window):

sudo nvram boot-args="-v"

Just like that. It will ask for your password and afterwards, you'll be back to the normal boot.
