Description

This pull request addresses issue #119 by adding kernel boot parameters to both UEFI and SYSLINUX bootloader configurations to provide a quieter boot experience.

Changes Made

Added the following kernel parameters to all boot configurations:

quiet vga=current loglevel=3 udev.log-priority=3

Files modified:

  1. UEFI bootloader configurations:

    • efiboot/loader/entries/01-archiso-x86_64-linux.conf
    • efiboot/loader/entries/02-archiso-x86_64-speech-linux.conf
  2. SYSLINUX bootloader configurations:

    • syslinux/archiso_sys-linux.cfg

Purpose of Parameters

  • quiet: Suppresses most kernel messages during boot
  • vga=current: Prevents mode switching which can cause beeps on some systems
  • loglevel=3: Reduces verbosity of kernel messages
  • udev.log-priority=3: Reduces udev log verbosity

Benefits

  • Provides a more seamless and silent user experience
  • Complements the existing beep-silencing features
  • Makes the system boot process appear more professional

Testing

  • Verified that the configuration files have correct syntax
  • Ensured that the accessibility options remain intact alongside the new parameters

Fixes #119
