Hello,
I am creating a custom image based on core-image-sato, with a custom splash
screen (using psplash). I have been able to replace the default yocto
splashscreen in my image,
however, my question is whether it is possible to hide the initial console
output text displayed on the screen prior to showing the splashscreen?
Currently most of the boot
process is completed at the stage when the splash screen is being displayed on
screen. This is because the image should be used as part of an embedded device,
and the end-user
should not see any traces of the underlying linux distro.
Any info would be greatly appreciated.
You could disable the [framebuffer] console directly in the
kernel (CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE). With this disabled, Linux
will leave whatever was in the framebuffer (possibly a splash
put there by your bootstrap).
I've done this where U-Boot put up a splash image that was the
same as the psplash one so there was no change on the screen
during the boot process until it was completely running.
