Is boot logo not supported in OMAP3530?
There are two ways you can add a boot logo to your target platform (Overo or 
BeagleBoard), one is to modify u-boot so that a boot logo is display immediately 
after powering on the system. The other is to add the boot logo to the kernel, in 
which case you have run 'make menuconfig', go to Device Drivers ->  Graphics -> 
 OMAP 2/3 display subysystem and somewhere in those options, you will see a boot logo 
option.

I prefer the u-boot option. The standard Overo distribution images have the 
linux boot option (you'll see a penguin on boot)
I was missing some options in the kernel config. after setting those I can see the penguin on boot.
To embed your logo within u-boot, you will need to modify the Denx u-boot 
sources. v2010.06 works from the denx git repo. I had some issues with v2011.03 
with the Overo.

What you will need to do is to use the linux gimp program to open a boot logo 
image file and save it as a C header file.

After that, you can copy the *header_data array to the logo.h file for the 
target board; and adjust the beagle/overo_width and beagle/overo_height values 
to correctly reflect to your logo image size.
Thanks for this pointer, I really need this since the logo can be shown very earlier.
