[Bug 1970069] Re: Annoying boot messages interfering with splash screen

[Mario Limonciello]

I tested it on Noble with a hand built kernel and it at least does what
you planned (don't see any console messages), but also I'm not seeing
the OEM vendor logo stick all the way through.  There's a really long
time of a black screen.  Not sure if this is because it was an upstream
kernel and it's missing a VT switch patch or something.

Does that match what you're seeing?

  Annoying boot messages interfering with splash screen

Bug description:
  Since upgrading from 20.04.6 Desktop to 22.04, the boot screen is not
  as clean as it used to be.

  Basically, the flow used to be in 20.04:

  GRUB > Splash screen > Login prompt

  Currently in 22.04:

  GRUB > Splash screen > Messages (in the attached file) > Splash screen
  again for a sec > Login prompt

  All of those messages already existed in 20.04, the difference is that
  they were not appearing during boot.

  I was able to get rid of the "usb" related messages by just adding
  "loglevel=0" in GRUB. Currently is "quiet loglevel=0 splash".

  Regarding the fsck related message, I can get rid of them by adding
  "fsck.mode=skip".

  However, I do not want to just disable fsck or set the loglevel to 0.
  This is not a sustainable solution.

  Something definitely changed here. These messages are not of enough
  relevance to be shown at boot by default, and they should remain
  hidden like they were in Focal.

  Obviously a minor issue, but important to the whole look and feel of
  the OS for desktop.
