Description: This is a package with 6 bootsplashes for Slackware Linux. I made the bootsplashes with wallpapers from http://slackart.linuxpackages.net/.
slack_gray - the progress bar overlaid the progressbox [fixed] - some slight changes in the normal mode pic
[Changelog 13.11.04 _ 01] Added more themes.
Exept slack_3d and slack_glass every theme has got an suitable picture for normal mode. (slack_3d and slack_glass use the general picture from the Linux theme.)
I try going to the link for install instructions and its a dead link. Could you include it in the package like you did before with the old version? If you don't have any webspace or something then I would be more then happy to host it or the package itself for this.
In the installation instructions the following command is to be issued:
"splash -s -f /etc/bootsplash/themes/slack_gray/config/bootsplash-1024x768.cfg > /boot/initrd"
I don't use and initial ram disk so in my case do I issue the command as:
splash -s -f /etc/bootsplash/themes/slack_gray/config/bootsplash-1024x768.cfg > /boot/
???
In my opinion you have to use an initial ram disk.
At least I do not know how to realize it without it.
The bootsplash picture is stored in /boot/initrd.

I´m going to fix the link! By the way: INSTALL and README are in the archive, too.
I have done what INSTALL archive says and I haven't got progress bar. How to put it? P.S: Lilo vga=791

Thank you for updating them! It's a very nice set!
I like it very much, and I switched immediatly to it. Thx
I really like this. I have it installed on my Slack box. It's clean, simple, and looks very professional.
