| 14 | gensplash is based on Genkernel code and that's why it's Gentoo-specific. It | |
| 15 | requires splashutils to work. To set up theme you may edit /etc/conf.d/splash | |
| 16 | or set DRACUT_GENSPLASH_THEME and DRACUT_GENSPLASH_RES variables. Your theme | |
| 17 | has to exist in /etc/splash and for every given resolution has to exist config | |
| 18 | in theme's directory, e.g. there's 1024x768.cfg in /etc/splash/natural_gentoo. | |
| 19 | List of resolutions is comma-separated. | |
| 20 | ||
| 21 | NOTE: The module will be rewritten to be distro-neutral. Its name will change | |
| 22 | to fbsplash. | |

| 25 | 1. Hostonly vs Generic | |
| 26 | ||
| 27 | All available themes are installed only if no --hostonly is specified and no | |
| 28 | DRACUT_GENSPLASH_THEME and DRACUT_GENSPLASH_RES are set. Otherwise those vars | |
| 29 | are checked and if not set then config /etc/conf.d/splash is read. | |
| 30 | ||
| 31 | ||
| 32 | 2. Configuration and kernel parameters | |
| 33 | ||
| 34 | Example set up by environment variables: | |
| 35 | DRACUT_GENSPLASH_THEME=natural_gentoo | |
| 36 | DRACUT_GENSPLASH_RES=1024x768,1024x600 | |
| 37 | ||
| 38 | Example kernel arguments: | |
| 39 | splash=silent,theme:natural_gentoo console=tty1 quiet | |
| 40 | ||
| 41 | You may easily set up the module using Genkernel with arguments: | |
| 42 | --gensplash=<theme>:<res1>,<res2>,... |
