hi,
we r making a freebsd kernel for a set top box and the
problem is that we dont want the boot messages that
comes on the console during system startup.can we not
do without it .i dont want anything to be displayed on
the console during startup.this is possible with linux
by deleting the "printk" messages in the source
files.we want to shift to freebsd due to licensing
issues.so is this possible.can anybody help me out.

any help will be highly appreciated.
thanx and regards
rohit
