 Pressing escape during the progress bar should allow you to see the
 services starting.  Adding vga=792 as a kernel append in /etc/grub.conf
 should give you the plymouth graphics.
 
 probably getting close to the point where this is unnecessary as
 F11-Beta is giving me plymouth startup goodness on my Aspire One so it
 seems that they have at least some of the kernel modesetting stuff
 worked out for F11.

FWIW, it works just fine on my Aspire 5100, too...but I get the text crud
on my desktop, with an nVidia graphics card.

If you remove rhgb and quiet, you will only get the text-based startup 
messages.

Thanks, I will give it a try in the morning!  Work machine and the text 
based messages are exactly what I am looking for.

Hit the esc key, but you'll still miss the first 4 seconds, it doesn't work 
before then.
