I agree with that :)

I have added ignore_loglevel enforcing=0 initcall_debug

to upgrade kernel



title Upgrade to Fedora 14 (Laughlin)
        kernel /upgrade/vmlinuz preupgrade  ignore_loglevel enforcing=0 initcall_debug repo=hd::/var/cache/yum/preupgrade ks=hd:UUID=c46f0b8e-ea34-47f5-8c7f-57a7f3a5d531:/upgrade/ks.cfg stage2=http://fedora.mirror.garr.it/mirrors/fedora/linux/releases/14/Fedora/i386/os/images/install.img
        initrd /upgrade/initrd.img


but the stream is jet very very fast to detect anything

i was able to see in one microsecond that one of the last lines contains 43xx and
using dmesg in f13 where i am now i see:

Broadcom 43xx driver loaded [ Features: PMLS, Firmware-ID: FW13 ]
cfg80211: Calling CRDA for country: IT
cfg80211: Regulatory domain changed to country: IT
    (start_freq - end_freq @ bandwidth), (max_antenna_gain, max_eirp)
    (2402000 KHz - 2482000 KHz @ 40000 KHz), (N/A, 2000 mBm)
    (5170000 KHz - 5250000 KHz @ 40000 KHz), (N/A, 2000 mBm)
    (5250000 KHz - 5330000 KHz @ 40000 KHz), (N/A, 2000 mBm)
    (5490000 KHz - 5710000 KHz @ 40000 KHz), (N/A, 2700 mBm)
EXT3-fs (dm-0): using internal journal


then maybe it is an issue with sata drive.... => EXT3-fs (dm-0): using internal journal

I would  delay the stream of lines before 
waiting for hardware to initialize

or better it would be to avoiud the clear screen, can fedora ppl avoid this
clear screen?
