First things first. I'm an absolute Linux noob, but quick learner. I want to know how to change the screen in which I boot up with. I have found the boot files in the directory along with the bmp thin but there's no pictures in there. Anyways i want to know how to change it...thanks!

armed assailant.. i have a question about your question... 1) are you talking about the LINUX boot screen or your computer's bootscreen itself? like my computer [its a gateway] and whe i first turn it on... it shows the UGLY gateway logo ... then lilo pops up and everythings all nice and blue. . . im not sure whether you can control that starting screen [my gateway logo...]... im also a bit of a newb in this area but maybe its stored on your bios/hardware and not on your HD? ... well i hope i was helpful/informative... i know that theres ways to change the other startup screens though... i havent checked but you might want to see freshmeat.org [or what was the site?] or kdelook.org [i think tey also have those kinda things...] for projects like that... well good luck on your quest! id like to kill the gateway cow too !
