Stupid little question. When I created the initrd-livecd-2005.1 file and |
| 2 |
booted it as follows: |
| 3 |
|
| 4 |
kernel /boot/bzImage-2.6.15-gentoo-r1 root=/dev/hda5 quiet CONSOLE=/dev/tty1 splash=verbose,theme:livecd-2005.1 |
| 5 |
initrd /boot/initrd-livecd-2005.1 |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
at the end of the init sequence, the little logo bar was visible on the |
| 8 |
bottom of the console screen as expected. If I changed verbose to silent |
| 9 |
in the splash= part, the graphical boot sequence was displayed as expected. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
I did the following... |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
# cd /etc/splash |
| 14 |
# splash_geninitramfs -g /boot/initrd-livecd-2006.0 -v -r 1280x1024 livecd-2006.0 |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
and booted... |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
kernel /boot/bzImage-2.6.15-gentoo-r1 root=/dev/hda5 quiet CONSOLE=/dev/tty1 splash=verbose,theme:livecd-2006.0 |
| 19 |
initrd /boot/initrd-livecd-2006.0 |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
Now, I am testing the livecd-2006.0 and notice that when in verbose mode |
| 22 |
no graphical bar is displayed after the init sequence (which should be at |
| 23 |
the right side of the screen as it is on the livecd). If I boot in silent |
| 24 |
mode, splash=silent,theme:livecd-2006.0, the graphical boot screen shows fine, |
| 25 |
but at the end, the graphical bar on the console screen is NOT displayed. |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
When I shutdown, the graphical display shows again with the progress bar |
| 28 |
correctly on the right (when I boot in splash=silent mode). |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
So, I know the initrd is getting loaded and the images I want are there. |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
Since I load these as initrd images, I did not recompile the kernel. |

Any hints? Is there something I need to do extra? |
