Hi,
I have a debian-kernel 2.6.9 and I try to use bootsplash. The
framebuffer is ok (vesafb 1024x768x16). Bootsplash works
anytime but at boot-time (each console has a picture and the
first console has an animation at shutdown-time.). However
there's nothing during the boot on the first console.
Here's what I've done:
- patched the kernel with bootsplash patch
- xconfig (no logo, bootsplash, vesa module, initrd)
- dpkg -i ...
- apt-get install bootsplash sys-rc-bootsplashI've tried different ways to include the picture in the initrd. Either with dpkg-reconfigure or with mkinitrd + splash -s -f /etc/bootsplash... >> /boot/initrd... didn't work. I think that the picture is appended to the initrd but isn't read, the system seems to ignore what is appended. In particular the size of the initrd given buy dmesg isn't changed when the picture is appended. The important point is that after the framebuffer is activated, the system doesn't look for a picure. Here's mydmesg:

The important point seems to me to be that the initrd isn't read entirely: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1512630 2004-12-28 13:05 initrd.splash
So the size of initrd.splash is ~1477 while what is read is: > RAMDISK: Loading 1444KiB [1 disk] into ram disk... done.
