HD Install :: DSL Boot Screen Picture

Is there any way to display a boot screen like XP's instead of the lines of words displayed until the desktop is loaded.

Thanks in advance,

Why don't you want to see the text? That XPee picture tells you absolutly nothing, those lines of text are very informative.

To a non technical user a boot screen looks much neater and user-friendly and will help attract more users and dent Microsoft monopoly a bit.

I was about to ask the same question myself.

I prefer to see the lines of text myself, but if I install it for someone else to 'rebirth' archaic hardware, a pretty boot screen would give it a more professional look to the non-techie, even better if it could have some kind of count (countdown from 10 or percentage loading, only roughly accurate so they know it is loading OK)

i think i can remember a linux distro i installed that said "press escape to view text screen" or something like that , i also would like to see a spash screen as an option
