OK Parted Magic works, Now what?
We can:
- Add background with vesamenu.32
- Add Layered Menus
Contents
By default amahi-netboot doesn't install vesamenu.c32 which we need if we want to add backgrounds. Two solutions:
- Get syslinux 4.05: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/boot/syslinux/
- Problem: it comes with 2231 files and we only need a few.
- install syslinux from repositories and copy files from
Link to syslinux files
Step 2: Get a background
Sample background: Right Click & Save image as Splash.png
move to "your share/pxelinux.cfg"
Open file "default" in pxelinux.cfg with notepad++
change 1st line
DEFAULT menu.c32 |
to:
DEFAULT vesamenu.c32 MENU BACKGROUND pxelinux.cfg/Splash.png |
Save it and start "test" vm
should show:
Ah! Sucki, Sucki!
