Editing the init scripts can get rid of a lot of the messages. Not sure about the ones from the kernel though, Like mem/cpu info, disk info, and serial info.
I guess you could change the kernel, and modify the printk messages so the ones you always see but don't want are not done, presumably selected with #ifdef, #else, #endif sets, so you can enable them easily if needed. Or add a kernel paramete to enable/disable those messages. Then you could turn them on/off without recompiling.
Not for the faint of heart though....
