[edit] Merge into HOWTO fbsplash
The content is redundant. The difference between the two pages is not clear, beyond the fact that this page is rather outdated. Discuss. --→ Chèvredan∫ante talk · contrib 23:55, 5 February 2006 (GMT)
- Uh, while I am just taking spock's word for it, his faq seems to imply that bootsplash is somewhat different from gensplash. That is, gensplash is better written, fuller-featured, and maintained more. Since gensplash is less intrusive on the kernel, I gather that it's pretty popular in the other distro camps. I'll just link to the Arch wiki [1]. The data is not redundant, but rather inadequate and should not have a merge, but a clarifcation. -68.100.68.23 02:14, 1 March 2006 (GMT)

[edit] personalize your grub
wget http://dhruba.codewordt.co.uk/files/grub-image.scm -P ~ <- doesn't exist anymore :/ i also found no backup on hte entire internet >:]
Assuming /boot is mounted set an image to appear during the boot process. Code: /sbin/splash -s -f /etc/bootsplash/default/config/bootsplash-1280x1024.cfg >> /boot/initrd-1280x1024
Or you can copy an already exisiting initrd image that is provided with the bootsplash package.
Code:
cp /usr/share/bootsplash/initrd-1280x1024 /boot/
