I have CREATED a splashimage which I want to use on my old PC which uses GRUB as it's bootloader.

I know there is nothing wrong with the image as I have applied it to GRUB (Ubuntu) inside a virtual machine, and it works flawlessly.

But on my old PC, it just doesn't show.

I have the image, breeze.xpm.gz, in the /boot/grub/ folder.
I have the /boot on a separate partition to Ubuntu partition.
I assumed the /boot partition was (hd0,2) because when I boot Ubuntu it says "Boot from (hd0,2) ext3" (My Ubuntu partition is ext4 formatted).

Here's my menu.lst, it's been customized:
Code: [Select]# menu.lst - See: grub(8), info grub, update-grub(8)
#            grub-install(8), grub-FLOPPY(8),
#            grub-md5-crypt, /usr/share/doc/grub
#            and /usr/share/doc/grub-doc/.

## default num
# Set the default entry to the entry number NUM. Numbering starts from 0, and
# the entry number 0 is the default if the command is not used.
#
# You can specify 'saved' instead of a number. In this case, the default entry
# is the entry saved with the command 'savedefault'.
# WARNING: If you are using dmraid do not use 'savedefault' or your
# array will desync and will not let you boot your system.
default 1

## timeout sec
# Set a timeout, in SEC seconds, before automatically booting the default entry
# (normally the first entry defined).
timeout 10

## hiddenmenu
# Hides the menu by default (press ESC to see the menu)
#hiddenmenu

# Pretty colours
#color cyan/blue white/blue

## password ['--md5'] passwd
# If used in the first section of a menu file, disable all interactive editing
# control (menu entry editor and command-line)  and entries protected by the
# command 'lock'
# e.g. password topsecret
#      password --md5 $1$gLhU0/$aW78kHK1QfV3P2b2znUoe/
# password topsecret

## ## Start Default Options ##
## default kernel options
## default kernel options for automagic boot options
## If you want special options for specific KERNELS use kopt_x_y_z
## where x.y.z is kernel version. Minor versions can be omitted.
## e.g. kopt=root=/dev/hda1 ro
##      kopt_2_6_8=root=/dev/hdc1 ro
##      kopt_2_6_8_2_686=root=/dev/hdc2 ro
# kopt=root=UUID=a5655211-67a0-40b6-83d0-1d5fe4c4102c ro

## default grub root device
## e.g. groot=(hd0,0)
# groot=1558fe7d-cfe9-4ea4-8e6b-ca4fd08cfc3c

## should update-grub create alternative automagic boot options
## e.g. alternative=true
##      alternative=false
# alternative=true

## should update-grub lock alternative automagic boot options
## e.g. lockalternative=true
##      lockalternative=false
# lockalternative=false

## additional options to use with the default boot OPTION, but not with the
## alternatives
## e.g. defoptions=vga=791 resume=/dev/hda5
# defoptions=quiet splash

## should update-grub lock old automagic boot options
## e.g. lockold=false
##      lockold=true
# lockold=false

## Xen hypervisor options to use with the default Xen boot option
# xenhopt=

## Xen Linux kernel options to use with the default Xen boot option
# xenkopt=console=tty0

## altoption boot targets option
## multiple altoptions lines are allowed
## e.g. altoptions=(extra menu suffix) extra boot options
##      altoptions=(recovery) single
# altoptions=(recovery mode) single

## controls how many kernels should be put into the menu.lst
## only counts the first occurence of a kernel, not the
## alternative kernel options
## e.g. howmany=all
##      howmany=7
# howmany=all

## specify if running in Xen domU or have grub detect automatically
## update-grub will ignore non-xen kernels when running in domU and vice versa
## e.g. indomU=detect
##      indomU=true
##      indomU=false
# indomU=detect

## should update-grub create memtest86 boot option
## e.g. memtest86=true
##      memtest86=false
# memtest86=true

## should update-grub adjust the value of the default booted system
## can be true or false
# updatedefaultentry=false

## should update-grub add savedefault to the default options
## can be true or false
# savedefault=false

Any ideas on what's wrong?Solved it.

Because my /boot/ was on it's own partition, I don't add /boot/ in the directory.

So it's (hd0,2)/grub/breeze.xpm.gz and not (hd0,2)/boot/grub/etc etc etc
