The logos there seem to be for mandrake. Unfortunately, every distribution has its own, incompatible LILO splash screen patch. I made my own logo now. I used one of the SuSE pictures from http://www.heise.de/ct/ftp/projekte/splashscreen/default.shtml and converted them to 640x480 by adding black bars 40 pixels high above and below the picture (using gimp). I dithered it to 16 colors and saved it as a RLE-encoded bitmap. (I cannot redistribute the picture, Heise's policy doesn't allow this.) Using the fourth picture the following LILO parameters worked for me: install=/boot/boot-bmp.b bitmap=turbo.bmp bmp-table=500p,270p,1,10,200p bmp-colors=0,,;7,, bmp-timer=580p,450p;4,, Walter
