you have to be in the directory where you extract the theme before doing
"cp message /boot/message"

for example :

#cd /home/ip-bla-bla/matrix-splash-v1.0
#cp message /boot/message

of course replace /home/ip-bla-bla/matrix-splash-v1.0 with the directory where you extract the theme.

Grub gfxmenu

Hi!

I was not able to use your gfxmenu for grub.
I get a "(...)/message" too large,(...) during grub loading.

From what I read grub fxmenu only supports 4bit colours and a resolution of 640x480.

I tried to decompile the message file and change the number of colours of the "back.jpg" but that didn't work either...

How did you manage to boot it?
What distro do you have?

Thank you very much.
Best regards,
António Vasconcelos.

I use a SUSE 9.3... I can tell you that I have no problem with the size of my message file... but I know that there is a size limit... now.. I think that the size is different for every computer... but I'm not too sure!!

Really really great job, but there's an error in bootsplash-1024x768.cfg. Line 22 is:
jpeg=/etc/bootsplash/themes/matrix-splah/images/bootsplash-1024x768.jpg
but it must be:
jpeg=/etc/bootsplash/themes/matrix-splash/images/bootsplash-1024x768.jpg

Now I've got a completely "matrix like" system :-)
