Silencing Boot Messages / missing quiet parameter?

Solved!

The squeeze initrd had speakup_soft in its /etc/modules file.  I commented 
that out, rebuilt the initrd, and the configuration discussed below 
becomes effective, and works like a charm.

I still think the quiet parameter should rate inclusion in the manual.
Maybe it's in more recent versions, just not in the one with speakup-doc?
