Does anybody know the difference between the quiet kernel parameter and loglevel=4 parameter?
All of the info I can find states that they should be identical, and /proc/sys/kernel/printk is identical.
They should be identical. Just look at the code: <http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git;a=blob;f=init/main.c;h=d7211faed2adfb295caf46bbb9c70835f622eabe;hb=HEAD#l201>. The quiet parameter just sets loglevel=4. Unless I'm missing something.
I am however getting framebuffer corruption during boot when using quiet which doesn't occur when using loglevel=4.
This is very odd. Any more info on this? Screenshots? Can you see a difference in dmesg? Cheers, Tom
