Ingo, do you mean that omit below messages?
Size of boot image is 4 sectors -> No emulation
15.37% done, estimate finish Sun Nov  5 23:36:57 2017
...
32608 extents written (63 MB)

Kernel: arch/x86/boot/bzImage is ready  (#75)
GENIMAGE arch/x86/boot/image.iso
Using /usr/lib/ISOLINUX/isolinux.bin
Using /usr/lib/syslinux/modules/bios/ldlinux.c32
Kernel: arch/x86/boot/image.iso is ready
