Good Day.
Guys i wanna configure so i can see a beautiful background when my machine is upload it..
I'm using the gensplash in 5 easy steps to do this, but there are something that i wanna know..
For example i'm using the 2.6.13-r6 Sources Kernel , i remembered that i active the framebuffer support, so i suppossed that i don't need to reconfigure and compile the kernel again..
If not please let me know.
Anyway i wanna know a way of to know if i need reconfigure the kernel again..
i've emerge splashutils and also livecd 2005.1 bootsplash theme the which is the one that i wanna configure, i did #mount /boot
later this
Create an initramfs image for fbsplash:
# splash_geninitramfs -v -g /boot/fbsplash-emergence-1024x768 -r 1024x768 emergence
and also this
# splash_geninitramfs -v -g /etc/fbsplash-livecd-2005.1 -r 1024x768 livecd-2005.1
But whichever command do i used i received the same error or warning
o creating directory structure..
o copying /sbin/splash_helper..
o copying themes..
- emergence
warning: config file for theme 'emergence' , resolution 1024x768 does not exist!
o creating initramfs image..
-----------------
o creating directory structure..
o copying /sbin/splash_helper..

the folder livecd-2005.1 and the emergance too
Could somebody please help me??
Regards
I'm reading right now
http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_fbsplash
But i cannot find help
If you follow the howto on the wiki you should get it working easily. I used that howto following the roll your own kernel build version (I never use genkernel) on about a dozen machines with varying hardware configurations and have always had success, it just takes some work sometimes.
