If you're feeling adventurous just pull rhgb from the CVS at rhlinux.redhat.com and give it a go...
Thanks for the tip.
I did get it downloaded and compiled and installed (I guess). It installed into /usr/local/bin/rhgb and rhgb-client. I even called up the rhgb program and it brought up the GUI screen.
Sooo, just for the heck of it, how do I incorporate this into the boot up process? And is there a fail over to go back to somehow if something happens to stop boot up?
Read the doc in rhgb. Something about passing messages using calls to rhgb-client. At startup I guess that'd be the "Starting....[OK]" messages in the initscripts. So look at /etc/init.d/functions and see what is does for the graphical option. I don't have RHL9 yet, but in RHL8.0 I see color, serial, and verbose as options.
Most of the wourk is in the echo_* functions. For You need calls to rhgb-client in there.
If you send me /etc/ini.d/functions I'll look at it. Else, I might get RHL9 running in few days and can look then.
