Hi, I want grub to become completely silent. Namely I want the message 'Press <ESC> to show menu' and the message stating the loaded kernel and initrd to disappear. I need that for hundreds of distributed systems where users shouldn't be able to gather information about running services (including kernel version and bootloader) for security reasons. However, showing a boot-splash without any text would be fine. What I tried, is setting combinations of below options in grub's menu.lst: timeout 0 silent terminal --dumb --no-echo --timeout=0 --lines=0 --silent console hiddenmenu default 0 # here comes the kernel That didn't bring the desired effect. Why doesn't 'silent' make grub completely silent? Isn't that it's desired intent? BTW: I'm using gentoo's grub-0.96-r2 Any help greatly appreciated, Mario Emmenlauer -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.3 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFEhgSNzxGsM4+WvrURAoaGAJ4rNa1kWVln/oySpjLWJC7yB6Tw+ACffgPP 96OTMvk8ZJUSKOcEGesKeHA= =crHg -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Bug-grub mailing list Bug-grub@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-grub
