I'm having problems getting a new /boot/message file to work. I unpacked the old one with cpio, changed the back.jpg, repacked it all, recreated initrd and all I could think of. At reboot, I get the graphic menu, but the image doesn't turn up, it's all black instead. Any ideas on where I may gone wrong, or perhaps a link to a good how-to on the subject?

What is the size of your jpg? AFAIK there's a size limit of 35k, so try to shrink it (lower jpg level), Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, Director Platform/openSUSE, aj@suse.de SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126

Actually it was 30 bytes smaller than the original one, but I'll retry it again. Thanks for the tip. Anders -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
