Does this mean that we can use that cool bootsplash from the 2005-04 livecd? (the one with the walking penguins)?

Watch out for this bootsplash business. If you have previously tried to install bootsplash debs from bootsplash.de you may get to experience some dpkg fun. The bootsplash pkgs from bootsplash.de were broken and create some issue that cause a problem everytime you try to install bootsplash after that. Bootsplash will refuse to be installed or removed and apt-get -f install will not fix this one. I do not know what causes this error exactly but I do know how to fix it.
Code:
mcedit /var/lib/dpkg/info/bootsplash.prerm

Now after this part of the file:
Code:
set -e

Add this:
Code:
exit 0


Save the file then:
Code:
dpkg -P bootsplash


If anyone knows what it is that creates this PITA please post! Smilie

mzilikazi, I remember. That's what I meant when I said "First time I have installed it for in a long time without any troubles"

You and remember the horrid experiences with that.

The one in unstable installs flawlessly though. Sehr glücklich

Hi jackiebrown. I wonder though......are you still on the same Kanotix install or have you since reinstalled? All of my installs have been on for quite some time. ( > 1 year). I only tried the bootsplash on one box but the problem persists. I'd love to figure out what those bootsplash.de pkgs did to my box to make bootsplash such a PITA. Unfortunately I have no idea and bootsplash just doesn't warrant enough of my time to figure it out.

Well initramfs-tools is in the Debian unstable repo so there should be no problems there. Try specifying it on the cli:
Code:
apt-get install bootsplash initramfs-tools


Sometimes apt just needs a kick in the right direction. Smilie

Well busybox is also in standard debian repos. I think your sources.list needs a repo added.
Code:
$ apt-cache policy busybox
busybox:
  Installed: 1:1.1.3-1
  Candidate: 1:1.1.3-1
  Version table:
 *** 1:1.1.3-1 0
        500 http://ftp.us.debian.org unstable/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     1:1.01-4 0
        200 http://ftp.us.debian.org testing/main Packages

Has anyone tried using that install-bootsplash-acritox.sh script? It's supposed to do things for you I believe.
