Possibility to show actual boot/kernel info during startup

[pvg]

Hi There,

Is there a possibility to show the actual kernel messages / bootinfo during startup op de PCH instead of the black & white 'loading' picture.

Kind regards

Patrick

Nope. If you need to see that info, use Lundman's telnet installer and check them w/ dmesg.

Thanks, i know about the messages file but since i'm a unix-guy i'd like to see what's happening at boot-time. Although i understand this wouldn't mean anything to the average user like my mother. and would probably only be confusing to them.

I'm sure it can be configured in the kernel just not by ourselfs.

Thanks anyway
