I want to remove the centos log that shown while it loading the services.
and also want to remove all icon&taskbar from desktop.
I am using centos 5.

is it possible ? how I can do that ? Please help.
Thanks.

If you mean graphical boot screen you can disable that in your grub.conf.


If it's for personal use then you can find any logo's that are not compiled in somewhere in /usr to blank or move. If it's for de-branded redistribution then you should read CentOS docs. I don't know if they would appreciate that sort of thing.

Hi unSpawn. I admit I haven't read any CentOS docs, but I'm curious as to why you feel this might not sit well with them. It's my understanding that CentOS itself is just a re-branded RHEL. I quote from their site:

Because they've done all the hard work?

OIC. Well, I do agree that it would be kinda messed-up for the OP to simply strip CentOS of its logos and stuff and then redistribute it. But that's pretty much the image I have of what the CentOS people did with RHEL. Granted, they do re-compile the whole thing from RHEL's source code, according to what I just read on Wikipedia. I guess that would probably be the main difference right there.

Yes, it's the general perception it's all "just" stripping logos or "just" recompiling packages. But I think that with a distribution that has set one of its goals to be RHEL compliant in every aspect there's more organisation and QA involved than most people know about or appreciate.
