How to get a bootsplash screen
I am using Mepis (though I'm sure this question applies to linux itself and isn't distro specific) and I want to know how I can add a nice background image while all of the intial boot screen is scrolling up it's info when linux is starting. i have the little penguin sitting at the top of the screen right now but i want to know how i can put my own image in there, and if possible, put the progress bar that usually says "Press F2 to see details" if thats doable. Also how can I customize the text that scrolls up..i.e. while it is booting it says "Welcome to Mepis Linux!"
Little things, but I am curious as to how/if it can be done.
Thanks.
