That's the login prompt gone but I've still got tux and a flashing cursor.
Ideally I don't want to start the console on the framebuffer at all ... partly
because I don't want the flashing cursor, and partly because I've modified
the framebuffer device driver and I think I've broken framebuffer console
scrolling support. How do I stop the console being initialised in the first
place?
