Splashimages and 1.lst 2.lst 3.lst
Is there a way to compile grub 0.05 --> grldr to support splashimages?
How do I enter c:\grldr="Start Grub" mymenu.lst?
Thank you
bye willi

Grub already supports splash images: splashimage (hd0,0)/yourpath/yoursplashimage.gz
But the format of the image (xpm) is not that standard, at least for me... Took me a while to figure out how to make it work. The initial path for the first menu.lst is hard coded into grub: /boot/grub/menu.lst or /boot/menu.lst or /menu.lst, but from there you can load yourmenu.lst using this command: configfile (hd0,0)/yourpath/yourmenu.lst
Hope this helps. Best Regards, Gilles

Well yes, but the chaining of menu.lst will not allow what I intended to do. That is, calling grldr from ntldr with 3 different load attempts = menu.lst ' s, bypassing menu.lst with timout=0...
The thing with this splashimage. I reckoned, that it is essential which color is placed where in the palette and that one should only use say 9 of 14 colors. Besides, My Splashimage is for grub linux 0.95 and should therefore work for grldr too. I will test this and reply to this forum.
