Bug#465245: grub-pc: Please make quiet option the default.

[Michael Biebl]

Package: grub-pc
Version: 1.96+20080210-1
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

I'd prefer if the quiet kopt was used by default.
The easiest way to achieve this, is to add
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=quiet
to /etc/default/grub.

Cheers,
Michael
