I haven't used it myself, but you may want to try using usplash to manage your bootsplash.
You shouldn't need to specify the location of the boot partition.Code:sudo apt-get install usplash
ok , but is there a terminal command to have the system tell me which partition it is in...?

Run `sudo gparted` and find the partition flagged as boot. GRUB itself is installed to the MBR (the first 512 bytes of the boot drive), which is out of your immediate reach.
just as a note , the usplash thing caused my system to crash out just now..
