[ts-7000] TS7200 Boot Sequence

We're considering using a TS-7200 as an embedded computer in a piece of test 
equipment.  (All of our previous products just use a 8/16 bit MCU).  The 
problem I see is the time it takes to boot to linux.  The user turns on the 
equipment and sees nothing on his user interface (LCD).

Is there a way to output a message or splash screen to the LCD from redboot and 
then go ahead and boot the TS-linux kernel?

I'm not experienced in this design environment, so any words of wisdom/sample 
code/whatever are appreciated.

Thanks.
