I have tried this without success. The splash.png I used was 640x400,
indexed with 14 colors. I used the lh_config switch --syslinux-splash
"path/splash.png"
I find that if I mount the generated ISO image, the file /isolinux/boot.txt
contains what appears to me to be an unexpanded variable: {$SPLASH}. Is
$SPLASH passed in as a variable at boot time somehow, or is this an error?
Thanks, M.
