## Boot screen image

Thu Dec 24, 2015 11:31 am

Another install of refractsnapshot and all going well with my ISO creations apart from...
I have in the past been able to replace the splash.png with another of 640x480 pixels.
At the moment this is not working and all I get is a black screen boot background.
What parameters do I need to look out for in Gimp when resizing an image to the splash image?
640x480,rgb?

JPEG, 640x480, RGB colour, resolution 72x72 ppi, without comments nor other metadata works here for syslinux and isolinux.

That's my mistake. Edit /usr/lib/refractasnapshot/iso/isolinux/stdmenu.cfg and change /syslinux/splash.png to /isolinux/splash.png
I copied those files over from refracta2usb, and I forgot to change that.

@fsmithred
Thanks for the info. I will edit the file and update this thread in the coming days...
I am working today and I am away from my linux box...

Useful reference info. I will double check my image settings.
Season's Greetings.
