I'll tidy up some initial patches to loader and get them into git so people can review/evaluate/test them. I'm also hoping to land something vt_vesa'ish too, as I'd like to use a vesa splash screen for non-EFI boots (for "reasons".) Just bug me. Gently, but bug me. -adrian On 20 May 2016 at 09:22, Kris Moore wrote: > On 05/20/16 12:06 PM, Juan Ram=C3=B3n Molina Menor wrote: >>> Hello, >>> is it possible to use a splash screen yet with newcons?
