But I'd ask, whether INIT_VERBOSE variable is actually needed. We have $VERBOSE variable, that defaults to "yes", can be set in /etc/default/rcS and may be modified according to kernel option. And also we have $INIT_VERBOSE, that overrides $VERBOSE independent of kernel option. Isn't it is too much complexity for such simple thing? Why would anyone desire non-verbose boot? -- Note, that I send and fetch email in batch, once in a few days. Please, mention in body of your reply when you add or remove recepients.
