[retroprogrammer]

Hey guys hears another tutorial for Retro pie noobs like me:), please make sure to comment

So first enter the terminal and copy and paste the following:

sudo nano /boot/cmdline.txt

You will see a single line with all the boot options. Scroll along and change the following making sure not to add any linebreaks:

• Replace console=tty1 to console=tty3 to redirect boot messages to the third console.
• Add loglevel=3 to disable non-critical kernel log messages.
• Add logo.nologo to the end of the line to remove the Raspberry PI logos from displaying
  Press CTRL+X to exit and Y to save your changes.

Next edit the config file with the following:

sudo nano /boot/config.txt

• add disable_splash=1 at the end of the file.
  Press CTRL+X to exit and Y to save your changes.

There you go. When it boots up now, it will just cleanly display your splash screen

Ok I tried opening the cmd line, but the line is blank. Any reason for this? I would like to fix it :)
