OK Parted Magic works, Now what?

We can:

  • Add background with vesamenu.32
  • Add Layered Menus

Step 1: Get vesamenu.32

By default amahi-netboot doesn't install vesamenu.c32 which we need if we want to add backgrounds. Two solutions:

Link to syslinux files

Step 2: Get a background

Sample background Right Click & Save image as

splash.png move to "your share/pxelinux.cfg"

Step 3: Configure menu "default" in pxelinux.cfg

Open default menu with notepad++

DEFAULT menu.c32

change to:

DEFAULT vesamenu.c32
MENU BACKGROUND pxelinux.cfg/Splash.png

Try starting "test" vm

should show:

Background.png


Ah! Sucki, Sucki!
