Remove graphical splash screen on SLES15

Posted on Wed, Nov 25, 2020 at 12:07 by Hubertus A. Haniel

By default now modern SLES/OpenSuSE distributions now have a graphical boot screen which can be quite irritating as it hides valuable debugging information during the boot process. - Although it can be removed on a boot by hitting escape but sometimes it can be quite irritating when having to do this all the time. The simple solution to this is to disable this completely by modifying the boot options on grub. The options for this are:

splash=verbose plymouth.enable=0

In regards to the plymouth option you could also permanently remove the plymouth packages but the above option is probably less intrusive if you wish to enable this at a later stage again.
