I played with this the other day. Here's what I found: |

|

When you apply that grub-0.57-vga16 patch, and just compile, grub compiles |
4 |
fine. However, splashimage stuff isn't compiled in (grep the binary files |
5 |
for splahsimage). Well.. after looking at the code, seems like you need to |
6 |
"#define VGA16" in the config.h. HOWEVER, doing so causes the compile to |
7 |
break :( |
8 |
|
9 |
So here's how I got my splashimage to work: |
10 |
downloaded redhat grub rpm, then |
11 |
alien --to-tgz grub.rpm |
12 |
unzippied the tgz in /tmp and copied the files over to where the grub ebuild |
13 |
installed the files. You have to remember to link menu.lst to grub.conf in |
14 |
/boot/grub. |
15 |
|
16 |
Make sure to reload grub (e.g. setup (hd0)) |
