Disable graphical GRUB splash screen

Q. I don’t like the graphical GRUB splash screen provided by SUSE Linux. How do I disable graphical GRUB splash screen?

A. You can disable your graphical splash or boot screen. All you need to do is edit the grub.conf or grub.lst file located at /boot/grub/grub.conf

Open grub.conf using text editor:

# vi /boot/grub/grub.conf

Now find the line which starts with the word splashimage and comment it out or just delete it.

Save and close the file. Restart the system to check the effect.

Your support makes a big difference:

I have a small favor to ask. More people are reading the nixCraft. Many of you block advertising which is your right, and advertising revenues are not sufficient to cover my operating costs. So you can see why I need to ask for your help. The nixCraft takes a lot of my time and hard work to produce. If everyone who reads nixCraft, who likes it, helps fund it, my future would be more secure. You can donate as little as $1 to support nixCraft:
