[gentoo-catalyst] Gensplash theme

[Luca Casagrande]

Hi to all!
I haven't be able to set a custom gensplash theme in my livecd..
I put in /etc/splash/ in my root_overlay and set it in 
#livecd/splash_theme: 

Each time, catalyst stop reporting that can't locate the theme

Thanks for help
Luca

what's the name of the theme?

my settings
livecd/splash_type: gensplash
livecd/splash_theme: livecd-2006.0
boot/kernel/gentoo/packages:  media-gfx/splashutils
                              media-gfx/splash-themes-livecd

Iivecd-2006.0 should probably be changed to livecd-2006.1 ;-)

Hi!
I mean to use a custom Gensplash theme...
Should i place it in overlay instead of root overlay?

Thanks for the answer
Luca

Try an ebuild, instead.  The overlays are done near the end of the
build, the theme is done during the "initrd" section of the kernel
compile, which comes before the overlays.

The Seniorix splashtheme is a regular ebuild, and is activated just like the 
Gentoo themes in stage2. Works more or less, since we couldn't figure all of 
the details in the theme scripts.
Is there a could Howto on creating custom themes?

Ciao,
Andreas
