Artwork seen during bootup

GRUB (Grand Unified Bootloader)

This is seen *every time the computer boots*, and is used to select the kernel to run as well as other boot-time options.

Location:

/boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz

Size:

640x480 pixels

Color:

Indexed Color (14 colors)

Package:

redhat-logos

Example: splash.xpm.gz

RHGB (Red Hat Graphical Boot)

Shown to the users every time they boot their machine up. The user may be staring at this for a while depending on how slow startup is, so make this pretty. :)

GDM (Gnome Display Manager)

Basically, the login screen. If users leave their computers on all the time and don't share their system they won't see this as often as users who share a desktop system with other users on the system or laptop users who reboot and login more frequently.

Example:

SVG

TAR.GZ
