Hello list!
Here is my first (ever) question:

is it possible to have a kernel with compiled-in (statically) the logo 
(penguin) but NOT the linux framebuffer console?
As far as I see fbcon is strictly merged with logo.
Any commandline hint or similar. Or I need a kernel patch?

Here is my landscape:
I am developing an ARM based embedded system and I need to have something on 
the screen during boot up.
As soon the GUI is ready this bootup logo must go away with my application.
The problem is the text scrolling with the virtual console and worst of all, 
the console will be blanked after a little while.

Best regards,
