[Gensplash] - Silent mode during shutdown
Hi,
is there any way with gensplash to get the "silent mode" during the reboot/shutdown?
I'm using gensplash with kernel 2.6.16-beyond. Thanks!

Re: [Gensplash] - Silent mode during shutdown
Not at the moment. Currently Arch shutdown scripts kill running processes right at the beginning, which kills the gensplash daemon before it even gets started. At least I think that is the problem.
I'm open to suggestions.

Re: [Gensplash] - Silent mode during shutdown
Solution can be something like VERBOSE_INIT = no in rc.conf
UPD: I mean, to disable any output initscripts produce

About improving initscripts to make them optionally be silent

Re: [Gensplash] - Silent mode during shutdown
They are optionally silent. We're talking about actually enabling a progress bar on shutdown. Sadly:
silent_reboot = yes
In rc.conf won't crack it!

Re: [Gensplash] - Silent mode during shutdown
In theory it's not hard but in pratice you have to re-write the way the rc.shutdown works - I think you do at least. If I had a minutes peace at the moment I would take another crack at it. I have had it partially working but it's not tidy at all.
