It's a gunzip-ed png with s special color scheme(I think that's how to explain it). What I did was to copy the image from grub to /tmp and unzipped it. Opened it up in GIMP and changed it. Then zipped it back up; backed up the old one somewhere safe and put in the new one. -Cesar Delgado --------------------------------------------- Secure Distributed Information @ UNL http://rcf.unl.edu cdelgad2@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx, beettlle@xxxxxxxxxxx > -----Original Message----- > From: anaconda-devel-list-admin@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:anaconda-devel-list- > admin@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Jack Neely > Sent: Tuesday, December 03, 2002 3:44 PM > To: anaconda-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx > Subject: syslinux splash image > > Hi, > > What are the rules for the syslinux splash image?
