Linux customized startup

An installation of Fedora 14 featuring my own grub splash screen, plymouth theme for the boot/loading screen and replacement background image for the gdm greeter (login screen)

For anyone who wants to make similar modifications I used the following sources:

http://jaeger.morpheus.net/linux/grubsplash.html for creating a GRUB splash screen

I can't remember where I found about the gdm-greeter modification but all you need to do is change the references to image files in /usr/share/backgrounds/laughlin/default/laughlin.xml

I used this website for learning about plymouth theming: http://brej.org/blog/?p=158 The thene I created uses their demonstration theme as a starting point.

Have fun!
