disable boot logo from LILO (kernel boot command line)?

[Daniel Barclay <daniel@fgm.com>]

Is it possible to disable the boot logo from LILO (e.g., via a kernel
boot parameter)?

With vga=ask in lilo.conf, when I boot and select a video mode, it seems
LILO changes the video mode but the kernel immediately changes the mode
back (to whatever supports the logo).

I want to boot using a higher resolution mode (to get more lines and wider
lines on the console) and without the logo taking up space and messing
up full-text-screen programs like less.


Thanks,
Daniel
