Quiet Bootups
With Grub, I did not see that endless stream of text pouring on the screen to rapidly to read. Because I (presumably) know how to configure it, I have gone back to lilo. Now have all that text back. Is there an append= or lilo.conf entry to control/eliminate the text playback? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

I thought you first went from LILO to GRUB and noticed the missing wall of text and then went back to LILO to get it back? To also get all kernel messages during boot with GRUB, you need to remove quiet from GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT. Grüße, Sven. -- Sigmentation fault.

How's LILO working out for you so far (excluding the text stream, which someone already gave a solution for)? I assuming your boot disk is not a GUID disk, right? The next time I reinstall, I'm moving to LILO too. LOL, but me, I love that text stream, so no append=quiet for me. :-) SteveT Steve Litt* http://www.troubleshooters.com/ Troubleshooting Training * Human Performance -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

When things *don't* go right, I can look at the last few lines before the freeze or delay, and try to figure out what it's doing when it hung or delayed, and try to fix or temporarily disable that while trying to find the root cause.

How's LILO working out for you so far (excluding the text stream, which someone already gave a solution for)? I assuming your boot disk is not a GUID disk, right? What do you mean here. Anyway, lilo works. See how quiet works, next boot. Will want to set up a fallback as well, no quiet, init= for the sysv in case systemd borks. I can use the same vmlinuz and initrd as much as I need with lilo. The next time I reinstall, I'm moving to LILO too. LOL, but me, I love that text stream, so no append=quiet for me. :-) I'll try it both ways, see what I do prefer. Text stream goes by so fast. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
