Good morning people, I've divided my HD into separate areas for two operating systems and am setting up a dual-boot environment. My primary O.S. is ArchLinux, fully configured and individualized, though with a plain vanilla grub configuration. I installed ArchLinux as my secondary O.S., omitting grub completely, rebooted into my primary O.S. and updated the grub configuration. It worked. My grub menu, while it doesn't talk, is easy to navigate, and I can select which O.S. I want to boot into. However, while my primary O.S. boots up silently until it presents me with a login screen, my secondary O.S. begins speaking some bootup messages before the login screen is spoken. Those messages do not remain on the screen, but they seem to be issued by systemctl as it starts my dhcpcd server and again when it starts cronie, perhaps others. Those seem to be "last minute messages" but since theyh only occur when my secondary O.S. is booting, I am wondering what I can do to suppress them. I am a bit intimidated by grub. I was once almost comfortable with grub1, but then it became grub legacy and grub2 left me behind. The only change I have made in the grub config file under defaults is to lengthen the time grub waits for a response, and to enable the grub startup beep. Any suggestions are much appreciated.
