Open lilo.conf in the editor of your choice and change the append: splash=quiet to splash=verbose. You'll still get the 'fancy background' but you'll see the messages scroll by. Run lilo -v as super user afterwards. You can also change the splash themes but that's another project for another post. ie.: When someone asks about it. <g> Alternative, splash=no gives a full "console" style boot, black background, boot messages. - -- Edmonton,AB,Canada User #244963 at http://counter.li.org Mandrake Linux release 9.2 (FiveStar) for i586 kernel 2.4.22-21.tmb.1mdk 12:57:25 up 1 day, 29 min, 1 user, load average: 0.06, 0.05, 0.05 A beginning is the time for taking the most delicate care that balances are correct. -- Princess Irulan, "Manual of Maud'Dib" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/3hUNZqvqlrLPr5YRAlXjAJ9z1h/3S3PBhzrE1Krf0zFeq/cKwQCgl7qL 8nFqgGmW5NU8ZguLqFw9vkU= =ZqnS -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
