I've a short question about grub.conf.
What does quiet mean in this line:
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.5-1.358.8kstacks ro root=/dev/hda7 rhgb quiet
Thijs.
It means very few output to the console during bootup. You may test it yourself by changing the kernel line at the grub boot screen. Press "a" (without quotes) and
a) remove the "rhgb" and keep the "quiet", add a "3" to the end see what happens during the boot until you get a login prompt
b) remove the "rhgb" and the "quiet", add a "3" to the end of the kernel line observe the boot process and the messages which appear on the console
