Change splash image of hardware detection.

Hi..
I am wondering about how to change splash image when harware detection shown on desktop of knoppix 3.7.
If anyone can help me how to doing this, i very very appreciate for any help.

Thank you.
best regadrs.

Do you mean the splash such as this?

Or this?

It is KDE's ksplash http://docs.kde.org/stable/en/kdebas...roduction.html
You can see the PNG image files at /usr/share/apps/ksplash/Themes/

I think at the first image, when knoppix show splash image while configuring device/hardware.
I want to change the image then do remastering.
How to doing this, please.. :)

Just boot your Knoppix:
boot: linux splash


When remastering, add that 'splash' to /KNOPPIX.build/Knoppix.Master/KNOPPIX-CUSTOM/boot/isolinux/isolinux.cfg.

That's it.

I don't know the name of the theme you are looking for, but theme which Knoppix uses is located in
/usr/share/apps/ksplash/Themes/Default/.

You can test your new theme by running

Code:

---

test-splash.sh

I checked knoppix live cd KDE theme path, but it completely different. The image is all about KDE it self, not same like knoppix splash image.

Just use kde's Control Center--->splash screen--->change to whatever splash you want
Or get a new one from kde looks and extract to /usr/share/apps/ksplash/Themes/.
Once you have select your default kde splash , copy /home/knooppix/.kde to /etc/skel.
Done.

Bootsplash is a different thing, you need to patch your kernel with splash patch.
Meaning, you need to recompile your kernel and do lots of adjustment on miniroot file.
Once done, you need to include your splash themes and statically compiled splash.c to miniroot.
Add splash=silent to isolinux.cfg.
You might want to comment some line in knoppix-autoconfig if there is statement on splash (scripted).
Done.

For the scripted bootsplash, do as tr suggestion.

Mmm, it means I have to remaster from HD installed. If I remaster from CD, is there another way?.. :roll:

thank you shah..

You don't have to do it from hdd remaster.
Infact, I did it on cd remaster using fabianz's script.
I also did use grub instead of isolinux as bootloader by manually mkisof instead of mkisofs from fabianz's script.
I only use fabianz's script when I want to compress my remaster.


cheers.
