Rene,

The linux boot logo is a binary file, which was converted from .png to .ppm .


Also, I am not sure how to copy over a file in a premake hook from a
location outside of a jailed root.
Do i first need to exit the jailed root, copy over the file, and
continue evaluating the next hook?  thank you,

Toan
