DSL Tips and Tricks :: Here is how to change DSL boot logo !!

The image logo is a file named logo.16 located in the /boot/isolinux/ directory.
In order to change it, you can either convert it to a ppm file and then modify it using GIMP, or convert an existing ppm image file to .16 format.

1. To convert an existing ppm image file to logo.16 format you have to use ppmtolss16 tool that you can find in most GNU/Linux distribution using this command:
ppmtolss16 < mylogo.ppm > logo.16

2. If you wanna change an existing logo file then you have to first convert it into a ppm image using this command:
lss16toppm < logo.16 > logo.ppm

Now just modify logo.ppm, and convert logo.ppm back to logo.16 and your done.
Enjoy!!

Nice tip!

Thanks.
