Can the standard splash screen be componentized?

[Jean Pion]

Dear readers,

You can add an alternative splash screen by adding "/bootlogo /noguiboot" to
the boot.ini file.
Then you store your 16-color 640x480 bitmap in the Windows directory.

Is there anyway to make a component of this, or must I use the FBA?

Tia, Jean

Jean,

You can create your own component that should do either:
- [proper way] getting access to BOOT.INI file of the current build and add these two options. CMI Scripting is the way to go
here.
- [easy] just replace the boot.ini with your own.
