Hello
I am trying to get a graphical-image(lss16) to be displayed during the
booting of kernel and filesystem.
I have my console redirected to COM1 (SERIAL 0 9600):
syslinux.cfg:
default linux
prompt 1
timeout 20
SERIAL 0 9600
display boot.msg
label linux
kernel linux
append root=/dev/nfs rw mem=192M initrd=vr5000.tgz
The image is displayed a very short time, and then the screen i cleared and
the following the following is shown on VGA-display:
Uncompressing Linux... Ok, booting the kernel.
This is then shown on serial port:
boot:
Loading linux...............
Loading vr5000.tgz...
Ready.
Linux version 2.4.3 (root at linfvdrdev) (gcc version 2.95.3 20010315
(release)) #63 Wed Dec 18 11:44:08 CET 2002
BIOS-provided physical RAM map:
BIOS-e820: 0000000000000000 - 000000000009fc00 (usable)
and the normal boot-information........
How di I make the image stay displayed during whole boot or until something
else is using the VGA-display ???
best regards
