I just tried it, and hey, it works. You must have -B console=graphics in addition to the splashimage, or the console text is just going to do weird things to your video memory. Sounds like both of you are experiencing that. However, I noticed the current code (http://src.opensolaris.org/source/xref/onnv/onnv-gate/usr/src/uts/i86pc/os/graphics.c#progressbar_show ) just displays a white bar in a black box. This was supposed to have been prettified in snv_34: http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6363028 The history for the file only refers to CR 6362643 =\ -Albert
