Reading that article, it looks like its talking about a ascii-art logo, where as I was trying to get the frame buffer Tux logo to appear.

I know. I found an article on that aswell, but you would have to recompile to get it working .. and i'm too lazy (and scared of fucking things up) to do that now :-)

heh, yeah I hate compiling stuff, especially kernels. Fortunatly this the machine im setting up not my main pc!

Anyway, here is a (rather poor) image of my console complete with the Tux logo and the boot-icons:

Sweet :-) *wants tux on her screen*

Guess I just have to live with the reboot-debian-logo :-)
