RE: [gentoo-user] LiveCD 1.4 boot splash screen
Sorry - it didnt work off the LiveCD during installation. Not that I needed it really.. but it failed and then gave me some splash error. No biggie.. Im more concerned with my PCMCIA woes.. I'm about ready to throw my laptop out the window into the front yard. If I can get that working I'll move on the framebuffer support and a splash image :) Thanks, - Brent > -Original Message- > From: Luke Davison [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday, November 03, 2003 3:49 PM > To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' > Subject: RE: [gentoo-user] LiveCD 1.4 boot splash screen > > > Brent, > > Which kernel are you currently using?

RE: [gentoo-user] LiveCD 1.4 boot splash screen
Brent, Which kernel are you currently using? You will need FrameBuffer support compiled into your kernel in order to take advantage of the boot splash feature. Did you go through the how-to in the first link?

Wow I never knew it really "did" anything. Running the install on my laptop gives me a display error so I either have to use the nofb kernel or hit the spacebar to continue after the error in normal mode. - Brent > -Original Message- > From: Luke Davison [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday, November 03, 2003 1:51 PM > To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' > Subject: RE: [gentoo-user] LiveCD 1.4 boot splash screen > > > Paul, > > Here is a link to the Gentoo Framebuffer, Bootsplash & > Grubsplash How-to: > http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=49036 This might also be useful if you were looking for the bootsplash with progress bar found on the 1.4 LiveCD: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=100620 Regards, Luke -Original Message- From: Paul K.
