how to pass nosplash to kernel

[frederikbjerreandersen]

Hi,

I just bought a Lenovo s12. In the ubuntu-wiki, it's said to run pretty well...and it does. Only the startup is a little long (and not at alle near the 30 secs). The wiki recommends "passing "nosplash" to kernel do avoid long delay at bootup with Karmic"

ok...but how do you exactly do that?

Backup the /etc/default/grub file:

sudo cp /etc/default/grub /etc/default/grub-backup

Edit it:

gksu gedit /etc/default/grub

replace:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"

with

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet nosplash"

or

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="nosplash"

save the file and exit.

run:

sudo update-grub
