thanks

This patch solve the issue, but making sure to use the path to
/boot/grub/ relative to the grub "root" partition, in this case
/boot/, making the splashimage entry show up as
"(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz".

        #checks for splashscreen defined outside the autoupdated part
        splashimage=$(grep '^splashimage=' ${menu_file})

Please get this fix into Lenny.

Happy hacking,
