I guess it would have been smart for me to include that now wouldn't it have? lol Well, here goes. Open up DrakConf or the Mandrake Management what-have-you thingie on the Desktop in KDE. Upon logging in as the root user, if you're not already, select the boot menu. It gives you two different windows as I recall. The one yo'ure looking for is "Boot Config." In there you have an option to turn off Aurora. You can even configure the LiLO/GRUB prompt. Whether it's graphical or just text based. I know one colleague that loves the Aurora boot screen, personally I can't stand it! lol Hope that helps. (I'd provide a screen shot, but I don't have screen shot taking software on my Solaris SPARC at work.) tdh T.
