at the "grub" menu prompt type "ESC" then highlight the kernel you want to
boot from and type "e"

in "editing" mode remove "splash" and "quiet" from the line

hit "ENTER" on your keyboard

type "b" to "boot"

if you want to make this permanent, edit /boot/grub/menu.lst (for Grub1,
which is the default  at this moment)
