'noquiet' is wrong, just remove 'quiet' from the append line. Also
in the lilo.conf stanza for the kernel you're usin, you'll see
somthin like 'vga=788'. Either comment out, delete this line, or
change it to 'vga=normal'. That's the change that turns off the
bootsplash. 'quiet' only prevents seeing the initial kernel load, but
you'd still see the boot process. 'Course you need to run 'lilo' to
make the changes take effect.
