I would like to see the the whole boot routine without any graphics blocking the feedback until I login in either gnome or kde (my choice).
Is this possible, how?
thanks,
charles…

On the boot line (for persistence, you’d include this in the grub or grub2
config depending on openSUSE version… you can get rid of the splash, by
setting it to splash=none. You can get rid of the attempt at high res frame
buffer by doing vga=normal (which might not be needed).
If you’re logged in and want to see what the current boot line was at boot:
cat /proc/cmdline
In openSUSE 12.1 and earlier (by default) I believe you can tack on the
variables dynamically at boot… otherwise, you’ll have to engage the grub
editor for grub2, etc… or make the config changes using the files appropriate
for grub or grub2 to make things persistent.
AFAIK all this is also writen in /var/log/messages and /var/log/boot.log
