We've blocked it and plan on replacing it for F10. This is a continuation of our "BetterStartup" feature from a few Fedoras ago (I would post a link but the wiki seems to be down). The replacement for rhgb will be a mixture of two things: 1) Starting gdm as early as possible and fitting it to give boot progress before asking for login. This is somewhat in line with the early-login prototype feature some of you may remember from several fedora releases ago. 2) Hiding boot messages before gdm unless escape key is pressed. For graphics hardware that has drm modesetting, we'll be able to show some sort of pretty graphics, and for everyone else we'll show a very simple text mode progress.</blockquote><div> Would we get a slightly more graphical way to unlock our encrypted root partitions than the current fairly inelegant text prompt. - David </div></div>
