Visual Boot Sequence

When I load debian, as you boot it up you get a screen looking like this:

First of all, I don't even know what you call that, but...I want it. I like seeing what goes on with my Linux start up sequences, so if something is wrong i'm not seeing a blank boot screen.

Can this be done in Arch just before the desktop manager loads up? If so, how do you do it?
Because I don't know what this is called, I can't seem to properly find out more about this.

Re: Visual Boot Sequence

Unless you tweak your system with any of the things described in https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Silent_boot, that is pretty much what the boot looks like in Arch.

It can't be completely blank, there has to be at the very least a percentage indicator to show you it's not hung or something.

Re: Visual Boot Sequence

What distribution are you using and how did you install it?
