Hi everyone,

With reference to the latest official image ( "Debian (BeagleBone, BeagleBone Black - 2GB SD) 2014-05-14") that i have installed on a SD card i have noticed that during the system start up

a sort of boot log has shown (before of the login prompt and the automatic start of the X11 graphical environment) with the penguin logo in the top-left part of the screen (with previous console images i used -

debian wheezy 7.4 - no boot log was shown and boot stop with login prompt).

I would like to hide this sort of boot up log and show only the logo during startup and disable the automatic start of graphical environment .

How can i do that ?

Thank you in advance to everyone,

Mirko

easy disable the logo:
https://github.com/beagleboard/linux/blob/3.8/arch/arm/configs/bb.org_defconfig#L3144

on the second point, disable lightdm which will stop xorg from starting

Thank you Robert,

i don't want to disable logo but disable all the rest that is shown during startup - i wish to view only the logo during startup.

Regards

Thank you Robert,

it worked but for my first problem i had to replace the line in
/etc/X11/default-display-manager with /usr/bin/true .
