[MeeGo-dev] How to hide cursor and message when startup & shutdown

[Alex Wu]

Sorry, it's plymouth-lite. But if it could add a little bit support on
animiation rather than just static picture, it would be better.

I hope the console ouput behavior is modified by config instead of
recompiling kernel.
Better have a document for customizing startup & shutdown process. Currently
it has too many screen switch, some warning / error message was not removed
and there is still a visible cursor.

Startup and shutdown experience should make the end user think it's a device
not a PC.
