I have taken it here (thanks Jerome) where it seems to suit better. A short abstract: I'd like to have an option to make grub be less verbose. I was thinking about an numeric verbosity level that would control how 'severe' a message needs to be to be shown. I spent an hour thinking how to convince you that this will prove useful, and wrote a long and boring passage :-) The short essence is: why not? I'm creating an embedded device, and the message just bugs me. Other users might agree. Maybe not. But I would implement it myself, and unless you mind the ten to fifteen lines of extra code I hope you will think about taking it into grub? It would supersede the 'silent'-function, so it might even make some code redundant. I'm hoping for a discussion and for some guidance on how you would want it implemented.
