Payne Sent: Sunday, September 19, 2004 12:49 PM To: For users of Fedora Core releases Subject: Startup Screen! Hi All I am found the perfect old system to use for email. A Pentium III 667Mhz, 30GB HDD, 192mb RAM and I have loaded Fedora Core onto it. The first time I loaded it up, I had a nice screen to hide all the kernel promptings but after I have restarted the machine, I get the old Linux prompts with all the messages like Setting Host name mail.sebpayne.com DONE How do I get back the original boot screen? Thanks Seb Payne Senior Services Consultant If you installed the Gnome GUI package then there should be a splash screen that (if you look closely) gives you the option of showing init messages or not. It's a little arrow (ms windows style) at the top of the screen. Just click it to hide messages. I'm not sure if this is there if you run KDE instead of Gnome though.
