Code:
.........
splashimage=/boot/grub/splashimages/grub-splash-debblue.xpm.gz

## ## Start Default Options ##
## default kernel options
## default kernel options for automagic boot options

I checked all lines cant find any defective..please enlighten me if i left....
What happens with splashimage=(hd0,10)grub/splashimages/grub-splash-debblue.xpm.gz
usually you'd set splashimage=(hd0,10)/boot/grub/splashimages/grub-splash-debblue.xpm.gz but /boot/ is probably not needed now
Thanks.I tried adding
splashimage=(hd0,10)grub/splashimages/grub-splash-debblue.xpm.gz
and
splashimage=(hd0,10)/boot/grub/splashimages/grub-splash-debblue.xpm.gz
both ways,i am getting a blank(black?) screen from where i guess the OS and press enter to boot!without those lines,i can see the grub menu..please help,....
