I was messing around with fbi in DSL a while ago, but never got it to work...the error messages didn't mean much to me, so I didn't figure out what the issue was. It's definitely a useful application...maybe I'll give it another shot.

FYI,

Those frambuffer boot commands (vga=xxx) also work well as a livecd boot parameter, so putting these instructions on the F3 key menu would be a good idea.
