Subject[PATCH v2] vt: add init_hide parameter to suppress boot output
Date
From: Andy Ross <andy.ross@windriver.com>

When vt.init_hide is set, suppress output on newly created consoles until
an affirmative switched to that console. This prevents boot output from
displaying (and clobbering splash screens, etc...) without disabling the
console entirely.
