Peter,
Thanks for the info - I now have Tux on screen every time I boot to good
ol' Linux. Just curious - if I were trying to make a system look
"friendlier" for a new Linux user - might there be a way to hide the Kernel
and rc.d messages behind a large Tux (like Windows does with the Windows
logo)?
Thanks,
Tim
