A lot of posters have asked how to disable the boot GUI. I'm interested
in seeing the GUI, and I don't see it on the machines that I've upgraded
from RH9.
I've read the Release Notes, and tried to add "rhgb" to the end of the
kernel line in /etc/grub.conf, and have confirmed that GRAPHICAL=Yes in
/etc/sysconfig/init.
When I added rhgb to the end of the kernel line in /etc/grub.conf, the
screen would go totally blank immediately when the boot sequence would
be displaying.
How do I get the boot GUI to display on this RH9->Fedora upgrade? I'm
including a copy of both /etc/grub.conf and /etc/sysconfig/init below.
Thanks very much!

# Turn on graphical boot

(also in /etc/grub.conf)
