You're welcome. If this is new to you, then my tip might not be useful because I've been using it with systemd since first using it on Fedora 15. You mentioned "ForwardToWall=no" and "ForwardToConsole=no" in "/etc/systemd/journald.conf" in your initial email but it's not journald that's spamming the console, it's systemd. The default log level in "/etc/systemd/system.conf" is set to "info" so it's the kernel's "console_loglevel" that determines which systemd messages are printed to the console.
