The console output is partitioned into three areas: the System Activity/State, Logo/Diagnostic,
and Current Activity windows. The System Activity Window displays information about the
current state of the system. The Logo/Diagnostic Window displays the OEM splash screen logo
or a diagnostic boot screen. The Current Activity Window displays information about the
