Hi Tormod, Thanks for writing back. Ah, yes. I understand better now. Then my humble suggestion would be to mention /etc/default/grub and the supports_quiet=false option within the comments of menu.lst (the magically reappearing quiet grub option is what brought my annoying self here) :) That would satisfy this software engineer, recently converted to linux.
Thanks and I go away now (happily) :) Chris On 1/29/08, Tormod Volden <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > The grub "quiet" option (or command if you like) - the one that is on > its own line inside a menu entry stanza - only disables some messages > that grub prints before the kernel boots.
