Hey there,

I thought I'd share this with my linux friends, ...
You can make your own nice graphical bootsplash ( like Suse or Gentoo LiveCD)....

This is the home of the graphical boot process for the linux kernel although it is not yet a part of the official kernel. It is, however included in several major distributions. If your favorite linux doesn't include this patch in their kernel send them an email requesting it to be included!
Taken from here


Enjoy,
