Uh? I guess you mean "Note that to make fbsplash work, you must not
use initrd images..."
If this is true, I'm glad because I have stopped using initrd's since
a loooong time ago. I just compile-in what I need in my kernels to
work for my boxes :-) (as everybody else who dares to compile the
kernel does of course).
Now, if initrd is needed. I guess I'll have to recompile my kernels
with that option. Not a problem (unless i start getting stupid
errors).
I'm about to test my first attempt! I have already created grub-themes
and gdm-themes based on Debian-Mist. Will post back later with details
if anyone cares.
