The only problem I am having is that when I attempt to use the "splash=silent" kernel parameter it always boots as though I had entered "splash=verbose".  By which I mean that the vga mode is correct, and the verbose graphics are displayed along with the kernel messages.  I am unable to get it to boot to the splash screen without the kernel messages.  Any ideas on what I am doing wrong?  Thanks for the help.

What does /proc/cmdline show after booting?
