Hi Tom, |
20 |
|
21 |
I did this once with a 2.2.16 kernel for rc1 or rc2, then we switched to 2.4 and |
22 |
my |
23 |
handmade include did not work with it. |
24 |
But I found a nice kernel patch ( http://lpp.FreeLords.org ), that replaces the |
25 |
whole boot-process witha graphic and a statusbar/line. |
26 |
All output from star-scripts can be passed to the statusbar via /proc/progress. |
27 |
You redirect all other output to another console so no info gets lost during |
28 |
boot. |
29 |
But that is something for 1.0 final or later. |
