Kernel Loading Sequence

Hi all,

I came across a problem when trying to compile a custom kernel for F11: both the stock kernel and my custom kernel have i915 modesetting enabled by default. In the stock kernel the loading screen starts up immediately when the kernel starts loading, but using the custom kernel, some text is displayed before the loading screen starts up (the kernel finishes loading without problems). I'm trying to figure out the reason for this and if there's a way to fix it so that the user doesn't see this text. Could the reason be the order in which different parts of the kernel are loaded? If yes, how can I control which parts load first?

I tried to see the text or find it in one of the logs in order to give a more complete description of the problem but I couldn't, so if anyone has a tip on how or where I can find it (in case it's relevant to the solution) I'd highly appreciate it.

Thank you.
