Hey,
I think all this junk talk about having a boot logo like windows 95 is really dumb. The first thing i did after installing windows95 is edit msdos.sys and put there logo=0 so that I can see what's happening at bootup and not see that pathetic windows95 logo.
I love linux and i think windows 95 isn't that bad in doing what it's supposed to do. but i don't think we should hack the linux kernel and add more bug possibilites just so that it looks like windows95.
Linux is supposed to be a stable system in which the administrator should be seing what's happening at bootup.
If you want to implement toys it should be done in user land. And I think all this talk should be moved to linux-config (or linux-junk) because this list has lately had too much talk about non-kernel related stuff. It should be what it was intended for, kernel related things, bugs, development (real kernel development).
Don't even Cc: an answer to this to linux-kernel@ because it will just flood the list with unnecessary non-kernel related mails. Check out other mailing lists for linux at vger.rutgers.edu. A lot of things posted here aren't supposed to be on the kernel mailing list.
