Could you help us with documenting grub better? Patches against texinfo
manual are welcome

I may be able to do that, however, I need to learn it myself.
I don't really mind reading code either, but a general idea about
where the drawing of the menu entries is located would be helpful.

I quick check shows that GRUB2 has 287 .c files, but I suspect that most of the menu customization is handled in the term/ directory.

Are there and specifications, design documents, examples, or other places that I can look at to better understand GRUB2 menu customization?

I've looked in info, faqs, the GRUB2 wiki, and google.  I do find
references to /etc/grub.d/05_debian_theme, but that is an indirect way
of customizing grub.cfg.  I am trying to show our LFS users how to
edit grub.cfg directly.

if background_image=/grub/lfs-logo2.png ; then

There is a space between background_imge and filename, not '='
if background_image /grub/lfs-logo2.png ; then

This is exactly what I was looking for.  It comes up properly now.
Thanks.
