Open a root terminal and edit the following file /boot/grub/menu.lst

At the very end you'll find the boot entries which specify which kernel
to load with which parameters. On this Ubuntu laptop a typical entry
would be:

title        Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.20-16-386
root         (hd0,0)
kernel       /vmlinuz-2.6.20-16-386 ro quiet splash
initrd       initrd.img-2.6.20-16-386
savedefault

Find your main kernel in that list and change its parameters to reflect
the following:

splash=nosplash

e.g.

kernel        /vmlinuz-2.6.20-16-386 ro quiet splash=nosplash

>From now on there will be no splash screen and you should see all boot
messages.



Yours sincerely,
Dennis Schulmeister
