hi folks,

i hesitated long before starting this thread, since there obviously enough already, but i could't make it...

so here is my issue: i got gensplash working, but only after kernel init. this occured since i use grub instead of lilo (as i did before). after configuring the kernel according to the FAQs around (using uvesafb and v86d; i won't repeat the other details, since there found everywhere).

this is my grub.conf

Code:

default 0
timeout 30
splashimage=(hd0,0)/boot/grub/gun_splash.xpm.gz

title Gentoo
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/kernel-2.6.28-tuxonice-r10 root=/dev/sda5 rootfstype=ext4 video=uvesafb:ywrap,pmipal,800x600-32@60,mtrr:3 splash=silent,theme:livecd-2007.0 CONSOLE=/dev/tty1 resume=/dev/sda6 acpi_sleep=s3_bios quiet
initrd /boot/fbsplash-livecd-2007.0


this is my .config
Code:

# Frame buffer hardware drivers

# CONFIG_FB_CIRRUS is not set
# CONFIG_FB_PM2 is not set
# CONFIG_FB_CYBER2000 is not set
# CONFIG_FB_ARC is not set

although it's not a big thing to have the kernel starting sequence not themed, but it's sort of a splinter in the eye...

i hope you folks could provide me with help. i'm sure it's just a little thing i missed, but just can't seem to find it.


cheers!

alex

EDIT: i know this is nothing of importance, but i'd really like to have a solution for it. so please.... any ideas welcome!
