      Hi Guys,

      Trying to make a totally silent boot. I am booting into one rom only on a dedicated replica cab.
      I have edited /boot/cmdline.txt and that all works as described. The only text now showing at boot is the auto login process. I have seen references to editing inittab to hide this, but now that systemd is used that no longer works.

      Anyone know the equivalent is systemd to hide it ?

      cheers

      Phil

        Well I solved this with a work around. I had splashscreens disabled. I created a black screen png. I re-enabled splashscreens and chose my custom one. Now the autologin text does not show.
