On my old CentOS 5, when it boots up (to level 3) it displays a line for each of the things it is starting as it does it. I found that quite useful. On my new CentOS 6, while it is booting up, it displays a useless CentOS trademark picture. Is there a way to get the old kind of display in CentOS 6? Thanks, Mike.
