That doesn't mean much as the kernel is set to be "quiet" by default.
Please change the kernel command line to remove the "quiet" keyword -
you can do this in GRUB by pressing "e". You should then see more

the screenshot to your mail so that it is still available even if you
remove it from your web server later.
