The boot messages are on tty1. Will they be moved elsewhere so as not to be cleared when X actually starts? This is a misfeature in Fedora.
With systemd, there are no boot messages anymore (besides the few lines the kernel prints. And actually, even though I was opposed to that in the beginning, now I find the output of systemctl much more useful to find out what was started and what failed than the randomly intermixed boot messages. And only the last few lines were preserved anyway.
Can the output of systemctl or systemd be configured to automatically display as highly legible framebuffer text that serves as an indication that something is actually happening, and instant warning of impending failure when e.g. can't find root or eth0 gets no IP assignment? These are among my favorite reasons to not use Windows, and to remove bootsplash from Linux ASAP after installation completes. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
