I don't know about "from scratch" but it is quite easy to get the
desired behavior.

Go to your /etc/grub directory and edit the kernel lines to remove the
"rhgb" parameter.  rhgb=red hat graphical boot.

FWIW, it would be nice if folks would stop using this thread for
"kitchen sink" items.  Create a new thread with meaningful subjects!
This thread is getting very boring with things that have nothing to do
with Fedora.  I'm just about getting ready to put this subject in a kill
file as well....

Thanks,
Ed
