	I guess you need to cvsup 3.0-STABLE first. It seems like there is
	no support for a splash screen in 3.0-RELEASE.

	In 3.0-STABLE it works with 320x200x8bpp BMP made with The Gimp and
	the following /boot/boot.conf:

load kernel
load -t splash_image_data /boot/daemon-320x200.bmp
load splash_bmp
boot
