HI all,
Not sure if I am in the right forum but if I am not could some please direct me to right place!
For giggles and laughs (and just because) I am 'remixing' Ubuntu for my own needs, and following the excellent write found here:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomizationFromScratch.
I have taken the commands, manipulated them to run as some scripts but I hit a problem I creating the splash screen.
The article make reference to
^Xsplash.rle being at the start of the isolinux.txt. My script creates the isolinux.txt but I cant seem to get the splash screen to work :(
I think(?) it is because the ^X is suppose to be a control character not just a '^' followed by a 'X', but I am not sure...
The isolinux.txt file is created by ehco'ing the contents to the isolinux.txt file.
echo "
^Xsplash.rle
This is an Ubuntu Remix Live CD.
For the default live system, enter "live".
To verify the CD for errors, enter "check".
To run memtest86+, enter "memtest"
" > image/isolinux/isolinux.txt
So my question is:
Is the '^X' part of the isolinux.txt file just that or is it some hidden character control?
How would I replicate this in a simple echo?
According to the instructions in the article the characters are : control + V and then control + X which for when trying to recreate this in 'editor' does nothing then exits...
Hope someone can help!
