Why is it so difficult to make such a simple change??? What am I missing?
I solve it the same way immediately after every modern Linux install. I edit /boot/grub/menu.txt to replace splash=silent (or whatever splash= is set to) with splash=0. It's a lot easier than mkinitrd.
All that does, is turn off the graphic display during boot up. I am able to change that to something suitable. However, I still get that ugly picture at the boot options and User/password screens. Is there any way of changing that???
