Clarification on splashimage usage??
Have setup a flash image for my g4l project that includes legacy and uefi grub4dos as boot loader. Had don't testing with booting both methods using Virtual Box and a few machines in Legacy mode, and a Dell computer that could boot in legacy or uefi mode and it worked fine.
Recently tried on an Acer Predator HELIOS 500 machine and ran into issue.
Using this at start of menu.lst the Acer shows the image, but menu text is not correct, and just entering fails to load options. Removing the splashimage line has the menu display and work fine? graphicsmode -1 800:600 splashimage /test.jpg font /unifont.hex.gz setmenu --auto-num-on timeout 30
So, currently am creating flash image with legacy boot having splashscreen and uefi not.. Don't know if this is something with Acer graphics or what..
Did also notice on Acer dropping to command line and running help, it would sometimes cause screen to strange if running help multiple times to point it went beyond screen to roll. Doing clear and then help over and over had no issue. Image isn't critical, but had tried to make it look like similar to previous syslinux boot setup. Otherwise boot loader works great. Thanks.
