This is a question that I've had, cause I don't think I've set this up right, but that splashimage line is supposed to show the image where?

What are the parameters for that images?
Does the image need to be a tarball to work?
Is there a specific place for the splashimage line to go?

Ok, guess I had more than one. :)

I've searched for these answers and have found that "it's not a very important option anyway" "it covers to much boot info so I have it commented out"
Great, now how is it supposed to work? :)

It can be frusterating, and the doc's on my computer don't even mention that option.

Anyway, thanks for whatever info you have on it. :)

From what I can work out it has to be a .gz and 640x480 8bit color depth.
