            Bug ID: 253392
           Summary: Handbook update: '… Configuring Boot Time Splash
                    Screens'
           Product: Documentation
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
               URL: https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/boot/#boot-
                    splash
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: Documentation
          Assignee: doc@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: grahamperrin@gmail.com

Please prepare for the Handbook to document: 

boot_mute="NO" 

– and other options that may be relevant to the anticipated March RELEASE of
13.0. 

Maybe with reference to work in progress
<https://www.freebsd.org/releases/13.0R/relnotes/#boot-loader>; for boot loader
changes.

– whilst much of what followed was off-topic (about git), points such as
<https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2021-January/078204.html>;
caught my eye with: 

> hw.vga.textmode="0"

Whether such things will belong anywhere in the Handbook, I don't know (sorry). 

----

Side note: I don't know when boot_mute became an option, but it was mentioned
in a December 2016 topic that's no longer available online:
