Comment 19 for bug 563878

Yes, I've come across the solution proposed in this blog too; but I really don't like adding 6 seconds to the boot up time. As I said before, the boot sequence is only on for a couple of seconds; I really don't see the point of making a longer boot in order to make the boot experience look good enough for you to forget that it's booting, if you get my drift. I personally would prefer a really short boot time to get to a working computer as quickly as possible. But what I really can't stand is that black screen with a blinking cursor - it looks like the computer has a serious problem - not a good first impression for a new comer.
