Hi all,
how can I set my boot to show services that is starting.

Do you know the dear old boot screen that show,

Quote:

Bringing up interface eth0:

[ OK ]

etc.

When my centos boot I can't see any information on the services that is starting.
this is my grub.conf

cat /boot/grub/grub.conf

Any idea?
Thanks.

At boot I only see this:

Normally you (temporary) remove the rhgb and/or quiet options from the grub kernel /boot/.... line, but I don't see those 2 options in the grub entry you posted.

Using the up/down arrow keys might work. Have a look here (one of the comments): Making the CentOS 6 Boot Splash Screen More Verbose

Those services you showed in the first quote are all started with chkconfig unless you were posting that for a different reason that I'm not catching on to. If you just want to see the information displayed at boot then use "tail /var/log/boot.log -n <however man lines you want to view>" Otherwise chkconfig --list will give you the services you mentioned below along with the runlevels they start running at.
