Maybe you also want to append the boot parameter "quiet", which will supress kernel messages being printed directly to a console. You can of course still read them using dmesg. That way the information displayed at boot time will be reduced, but the messages from hotplug about loading the modules will remain. best regards Andreas Janssen -- Andreas Janssen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> PGP-Key-ID: 0xDC801674 ICQ #17079270 Registered Linux User #267976 http://www.andreas-janssen.de/debian-tipps-sarge.html -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
