How do you see the image?  Could you post your entire config?

My syslinux.cfg file:

   prompt 0
   display splash.lpg

   default live
   console 0
   label live
     kernel /casper/vmlinuz
     append boot=casper initrd=/casper/initrd.lz locale=fr_FR.UTF-8 console-setup/layoutcode=fr quiet splash
   timeout 1


in the splash.lpg there is the name of the lss16 file, with command characters.

Daniel.
