Quiet Boot differences between RC1 and 2
« on: August 21, 2009, 11:14:53 PM »
I want an all text boot.
In RC1, if I set the following in com.apple.Boot.plist the Chameleon GUI doesn't appear;
<key>Kernel Flags</key>
<string>-v</string>
<key>Quiet Boot</key>
<string>yes</string>
With the same settings in RC2, the Darwin boot messages appear over the Chameleon GUI, then the verbose OS boot messages show on a black background.
Is there any way to suppress the Chameleon GUI in RC2?
In RC1 I attempted to use the following, but it resulted in a grey bar and freeze during the Darwin boot;
<key>GUI</key>
<string>no</string>

Instead just disable the gui completely:

Code: [Select]
<key>GUI</key>
<string>n</string>

I used GUI=n with RC1, and it froze during the Darwin boot with a horizontal grey bar showing on the screen.

Don't use RC1, it will crash without a hardwired Graphics Mode setting + disabled GUI. It was fixed in RC2 :)

Thanks, GUI=n works correctly in RC2.
