Linux graphical bootsplash allows you to use custom graphics during early system startup. It makes it possible to place a nice graphic behind or above the kernel boot messages.

Linux graphical bootsplash hooks into the fbcon layer and, if activated, searches the initial ramdisk for a JPEG picture to show.

On any output operations to the console, it takes care of painting a margin around your text and a background picture behind the text with a set of special cfb functions.

Here are some key features of "Linux graphical bootsplash":
Nice graphics (JPEG)
Antialiased text rendering (TrueType)
Animations (MNG)
Progress Bar
Display of boot messages above or below a graphic. ("verbose" and "silent" modes)
Fully themeable
