Bug#383231: grub-splashimages: Please include configuration example for menu.lst

[Wolf Wiegand]

Package: grub-splashimages
Version: 1.0.0
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Hi,

please include a brief configuration example for menu.lst and a
reference to changelog.Debian.gz from the grub package.

I've attached a patch for this to include this in the README. I've put
the example on top of the previous items, as this question probably is
the first question people have after installing this package. 

Regards, Wolf
