Menu.lst may not be to blame. Either vga is not set, you don't have a boot splash associated with your initrd or your splash image size does not match the size of the image grub expects to load. I'm going to assume your kernel is built to use boot splash.
If you run 'mkinitrd' as root, at the end, it'll list the boot splash theme and size. If it doesn't list splash, you can do 'mkinitrd -s 1024x768'
That mkinitrd -s thing fixed it partially, thanks! Read what it did in Dominique's post. Still get the text scrolling after the bootsplash screen though. :(
Getting there, but looks like you only saw half of my original message
:-) Other half says to add a vga entry to your menu.lst. Gud lock.
I did add it...all it did was make the scrolling text slightly smaller, didn't get me a nice screen with some small graphics while I'm waiting for the login screen. -- "The tree of liberty must be occasionally watered with the blood of tyrants." - Thomas Jefferson -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
