Linux Boot Logo

What is the easiest way to change the boot logo on the
mini2440 from the penguin?

Hello Ajit,

To change boot logo you need to compile kernel.
Use following commands to change logo.

convert my_logo.png temp_lopo.ppm
ppmquant 224 temp_logo.ppm > temp_logo2.ppm
pnmnoraw temp_logo2.ppm > logo_linux_clut224.ppm

copy logo_linux_clust224.ppm to [path_to_Kernel]/driver/video/logo/

Cross compile Kernel with "make -j4 zImage"

Should I directly type these commands in terminal?? Is there any size limit
for the logo??
Thanx for your reply.

My zImage is placed in /home/ajit/Desktop/Kernel/zImage_A70.. But When I
type cp logo_linux_clust224.ppm
/home/ajit/Desktop/Kernel/zImage_A70/driver/video/logo/..
it says Not a directory..???

Yes, You need to type these commands directly in terminal.
Maximum size is display Resolution (320x240) and input format png.

type "cp logo_linux_clust224.ppm
/home/ajit/Desktop/Kernel/zImage_A70/driver/video/logo/logo_linux_clust224.ppm"

Thank You Sandeep.
For Your Support.

It still says Not a directory..

Ajit,

This is Very confusing.

I have already said that you need to Cross-Compile the kernal to Change the
logo. And you are trying to add your logo to zImage
[/home/ajit/Desktop/Kernel/zImage_A70].

Again,

cp logo_linux_clut224.ppm
[path_to_Kernel_Source_Code]/driver/video/logo/logo_linux_clut224.ppm

Then compile kernel for your A70 display.

What is "Kernel_Source_Code" ??? Where can I get it ???

You can Download kernel source code from download section.

Thank You Sandeep..!!

Thank you for your support..
Should I follow all steps shown in above tutorial???
Or
what I did is
Copied my logo file in that address.
configured with A70 .config file
and "make -j4 zImage"

Will it work or I Should do the "menuconfig" too as shown in video??

Ajit, You don't need to follow all the steps.
you dont need to do "make menuconfig"
