Hello there, fellow Linux folks!
So, having previously tried Arch and some of its derivatives, I’ve found it incredibly useful to have systemd showing processes when I turn my system on and off.
However, my current distro (OpenSUSE Slowroll) doesn’t do this. Is there a way to enable it?
As others mentioned Esc during boot. You can also configure this in your grub config so you don’t have to hit escape, assuming your distro uses grub. Other boot config options will exist in other systems.
For grub it also depends on the distro as to where it is, but look for /etc/default/grub edit that and on the lone that has GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT remove the quiet and splash options. So if it looks like this:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=“quiet splash”
change it to
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=“”
Then run “sudo update-grub2” to make it effective.
You can toggle between the logo and the log using the escape key
Oh wait - it’s simple as that? Nice!
Guess that’s all I need.
You can probably disable it entirely by changing the kernel boot options.
I’m not a kernel expert, but that’s just
quiet
andsplash
right?Yup, pretty much.
Press ESC
Yup, works, thanks!
