Several ways: a) You can redirect the console as Bruce mentions b) there is an option you can add to the kernel commandline to disable psplash (psplash=false) c) you can switch the console as you normally would under Linux which triggers psplash to terminate (Something like Crtl+Alt+F2 then Ctrl+Alt +F1 again but I can't remember the exact combination off the top of my head) Cheers, Richard
