One other posibility is that you have the timeout variable in /boot/grub/grub.conf set to 1 or 0 check that and try setting it to something more reasnable like 15.

Hello David,

It sounds your machine boots via runlevel 1 to runlevel 5.
Then the splashscreen will not be visible.

Try it with the command 'reboot', maybe that works better.
That's my experience with RHES4 machines.

Good luck.
