Unfortunately, systemd's
parallelization of service startup make
output on the console
extremely ugly during boot, because
several
different commands
would output to the screen at the same time
and be
all mixed
together.
Isn't it possible for you to tell if you were
started from a console and output to it if so? I seem to remember
writing a script one time that needed to do that (i.e. output information
if called from the command line but be silent when called from cron).
