The logos there seem to be for mandrake. Unfortunately, every
distribution has its own, incompatible LILO splash screen patch.
I made my own logo now. I used one of the SuSE pictures from
http://www.heise.de/ct/ftp/projekte/splashscreen/default.shtml and
converted them to 640x480 by adding black bars 40 pixels high above and
below the picture (using gimp). I dithered it to 16 colors and saved it
as a RLE-encoded bitmap. (I cannot redistribute the picture, Heise's
policy doesn't allow this.)
Using the fourth picture the following LILO parameters worked for me:
install=/boot/boot-bmp.b
bitmap=turbo.bmp
bmp-table=500p,270p,1,10,200p
bmp-colors=0,,;7,,
bmp-timer=580p,450p;4,,
