That's the simple question. How to disable the two Nokia images on boot up? I want to have the text output of the kernel. Will deleting of the two images do it?

I'd be happy if I could just change them.

You need to recompile kernel and enable framebuffer console. It is not compiled in by default.

No.

But it should not be so hard to find where they are being displayed in boot scripts and disable the code. One is in bootloader before kernel even boots (hard to remove), second is in initfs and Nokia hands and progress bar is in rootfs.

I think framebuffer is enabled by default or at least it was. Shortly after I flashed to the latest OS image i reflashed the kernel with an old version (osso40 I think) and on bootup there were plenty of errors, with the images showing only partially and lots of errors (and reboot cycle )

Framebuffer alone and framebuffer console are two different things. First is enabled, second is not. Framebuffer console is additional code in drivers/video/console/ It also takes additional memory for screen copy, screen fonts etc. In normal situation there is no reason to bloat kernel with all this stuff.
