http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev/gfxboot-theme-ubuntu/mainline FWIW (bring your sickbag, it's an enormous pile of something that looks a bit like Forth; I've deleted a fair bit of the crazier SuSE code that I didn't think we needed but I'm sure there are some bits left in there). Since it includes language and keyboard selection it needs to be kept up to date with d-i, so I think it would be best to maintain it in the d-i repository - I could do some light editing and shovel the necessary bits around. It needs some changes to debian-cd too, of course. -- Colin Watson [cjwat...@ubuntu.com] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
