Bootsplash

I am using Suse 9.3 and Mandriva 2006, dual boot with Suse supplying the bootloader. My problem is I can't get Mandriva to boot w/o all the text. I've tried setting it up "silent" in MCC but it doesn't seem to work. Any ideas?

silent vga=788 in the grub boot line may help
(check the vga code)

timeout 10
color 2
splashimage (hd0,4)/grub/mdv-grub_splash.xpm.gz
default 0
viewport 3 2 77 22
shade 1

title 2611-8
kernel (hd0,4)/vmlinuz-2.6.11-8mdk root=/dev/hda6 resume=/dev/hda1
initrd (hd0,4)/initrd-2.6.11-8mdk.img

This is my menu list in grub. I tried adding splash=silent to the text above but it didn't work.

Thanks for the reply.

If suse supplies grub, then it is menu.lst in the suse partition you need to edir.

I suggest you edit grub via the command line boot (pressing e) at first
