by the way... when I say "pixely" I'm mostly (not totally, though) referring to the "Ubuntu" and orange logo.

splashimage=(hd0,0)/boot/grub/images/blu.xpm.gz

title Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.17-10-generic Default
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz root=UUID=942259b3-1020-49f1-9d43-91993f3b4a65 ro$
initrd /boot/initrd.img
savedefault
boot

This is a part of my /boot/grub/menu.lst. Now, you can probably use the root hd, (hd0,0) in my case, as this is where grub most probably is installed. If you have a separate /boot partition, then the root partition and the partition for the splashimage will be different.

Anyway, the simple explanation (IIRC):
the first digit represents the IDE/SATA-channel, and the second the partition. There's a simple command to do this too, just can't think of it right now Im afraid.

To check the grub partition number type:

sudo grub

Then at the grub> prompt type:

find /boot/grub/stage1

Then type quit to exit grub. Be careful.

If you do not use sudo/root it will say file not found.

Resolution?

How do I change the resolution of the GRUB menu? I have vga=792 on the defoptions= line, so my bootsplash and virtual terminals are a large resolution, but the GRUB menu still cuts off the bottom of the image because the resolution is too small.

1.
The line to be added in /boot/grub/menu.lst has to include the proper pic name.

Meaning: The picture i loded from this page is called "36907-Blu.xpm.gz".
So i cant just copy&paste the line as described in the describtion here.
2.
There is just one single picture in the gz i got - some blue 640x480 pic.
No ubuntu logo (i mean not only it's missing in splash screen - it appears not to be in the gz file)
