Grub doesn't shows splash image

Mardukas · 2007-08-24 00:46:46

Downloaded bootsplash image that worked for my Debian installation. But I still see black background. menu.lst:

splashimage=(hd0,3)/boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz

timeout   10
default   0

title Linux
root   (hd0,3)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz26 root=/dev/sda4 ro vga=773
initrd /boot/kernel26.img

title Windows
rootnoverify (hd0,1)
makeactive
chainloader +1

I don't have seperate /boot partition, /boot is on /dev/sda4 (so (hd0,3) should me right). So what's the problem? Splash iamge is correct (I even made one by myself, but it doesn't work too ), menu.lst seems to look fine for me too.

You have to replace grub with grub-gfx from the community repo to get grub splash to work.

Maybe anyone knows how to disable white border in grub? And how to remove text (press 'c' for command line, etc, that is below that white border)?
