The very first splash screen? You mean the Grub one where you select your kernel? – David Mackintosh Aug 16 '10 at 03:45

Normally hiding the boot messages requires recompiling the kernel, so that you can start the OS in kernel quiet mode. Lately, there are some tools which enable you to do it without recompiling the kernel
you can check splashy http://splashy.alioth.debian.org/wiki/installation
or google "fbsplash"
