linux installation screen changed appearance???

JustCallMeBob · 02-01-2006, 09:13 PM

I have a peculiar problem. First when i installed linux i had this blue default installation menu, but some days ago when i were running the install dvd, this screen had suddenly changed to a bunch of charming linux penguins playing in the snow. I wont deny they look quite cool, HOWEVER i dont like this, cause i sure havent done it myself! At least in windows you need to edit the registry to change things like the startup screen, so if its some way similar in linux i get a creepy feeling! I dont suppose its supposed to change automatically? Anyone got an explanation?

Just out of curiousity, what distro are you using?

Ehh, you installed, then ran the install dvd again? Well if the splash screen changed that certainly seems like the cause.

Right! Im using Suse 10. Well to be more precise I had the dvd inside my computer to install additional software, I forgot and it loaded on next startup and i saw the funny screen.

SUSE 10 Changes the splash screen sometimes, theres nothing wrong, and I don't know why it does it.

Right ehe it has changed back now.

And ill put splash screen on mind, nice to be using the correct terminology.
