[Pcbsd-developer] animated bootup screen

[Mark A. G. <ma...@in...>]

I propose we work on an animated bootup screen.  Instead of having a 
static image loaded by the kernel, that we write the code to have the 
image, and maybe an overlayed screen with animations that display what's 
actually going on, and also maybe saying "press F1 for verbose mode" and 
it'll display the kernel text overlayed on the bootup screen.

I've been looking at the kernel code, check out /usr/src/sys/dev/fb/

or if you're interested in looking at the bootup code check out 
/usr/src/sys/boot/i386
