I think this kind of stuff would really do good to the debian configuration. There's a lot of msg's at startup I cannot view with neither dmesg nor with cat /var/log/syslog. It's quite simple to implement (well, windows does that). We should be able to go step-by-step from the very begining of the boot process. I'm posting a copy to debian-devel. Please, somebody correct the address and repost this msg, if debian-devel@lists.debian.org ain't the right address.
