If you'd rather not change the default setup but just want to see the boot message for once, you can press the Esc key: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/plymouth/tree/README "In either text or graphics mode, the boot messages are completely occluded. After the root file system is mounted read-write, the messages are dumped to /var/log/boot.log. Also, the user can see the messages at any time during boot up by hitting the escape key." Akemi
