Just for the archives: My splash screen is still working. su-2.04# ls -l /boot/splash.bmp -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 787510 9 Aug 07:20 /boot/splash.bmp su-2.04# This is Chuck on a hill in the sun, from some FreeBSD website in 1024*768/256 indexed colors. And all of my friends turn pale, when they see him a few seconds after the first boot stage ;-) BTW, if you want to see the log messages, press the shift button and the splash screen will disappear. Found this by accident, is this somewhere in the docs? Ciao Siegbert Do you load the VESA module? I can load an image *ONLY* swithing to VESA.
