Hi,
I also meet with issues with gfxboot-examples.

While trying to use the gftxtest command line, it fails where ever I am
located in the console:

************************************************
$ pwd
/usr/share/gfxboot
$ gfxtest -t /usr/share/gfxboot/themes/example_03
error: gfxtest must be run from /usr/share/gfxboot

************************************************

I also tried as root and met with the same error message. I tried
several example themes.

I have tried making a new bootlogo, using a 800x600 jpg image, which weights 16 
Kio only. 
I followed the instructions provided in the example_07.bc file:

************************************************

% To use this example to boot from a real CD-ROM, do:
%
%   # make -C themes/example_07
%   # mkdir /tmp/foo
%   # gfxboot -a themes/example_07/bootlogo --expand-archive /tmp/foo
%   # cp /tmp/foo/* to_the_dir_on_your_ISO_where_isolinux.bin_is
%
%   and add a line 'ui gfxboot bootlogo' to isolinux.cfg.

************************************************

When using it in an iso being built, to replace the one installed into
the isolinux directory, (using Ubuntu Builder to create a custom iso),
the next iso created fails to display any start, and does not boot.
