Postby Rita G. » Tue Aug 04, 2009 11:40 am

the metallic artwork in this system is really beautiful.

my compliments to the artist(s).

is there any way to get rid of “Booting the system...Press Esc for verbose mode”

while the system boots?

I think you would be ill advised to get rid of the message as its soul purpose is to let you know its doing something, if you "remove it"; what would you do when you ran into a problem?.
Apart from that; I for one don't know how to!.

Look at /sbin/spash.sh around line 223. There you can just remove it from the quotes.

Leave the quote marks but only remove the text. You will get nothing. 8)
gprintf "Booting the system..." to -> gprintf ""
gprintf "Press Esc for verbose mode. to -> "gprintf ""
