Hi all,
I have looked everywhere for info on 2 boot loader issues:
1. I have a workstation that dual boots WinXP and FreeBSD. The boot menu
looks as follows:
F1 ???
F2 FreeBSD
Default: F2
The F1 ??? is Windows XP. Is there any way I can change to look like:
F1 WindowsXP
F2 FreeBSD
Default: F2
2. The other question I have is to do with splash screens:
I have compiled my kernel with the options:
pseudo-device splash
options VESA
and my /boot/loader.conf looks as follows:
userconfig_script_load="YES"
autoboot_delay="1"
splash_bmp_load="YES"
splash_pcx_load="NO"
vesa_load="YES"
bitmap_load="YES"
bitmap_name="/boot/splash.bmp"
bitmap_type="splash_image_data"
Yet it doesn't display the /boot/splash.bmp file (which is a
320x200x8bit bitmap)
Have I missed anything?
Thanks all...
