GRUB Splash Images package contains a collection of splashimages which can be used for GRUB.

If youd like your splashimage in this package send them to mcgrof@ruslug.rutgers.edu.

Quick tips for the impatient:

convert -resize 640x480 -colors 14 image.png image.xpm && gzip image.xpm

Quick tip for debian users: Use "unstable" packages in your /etc/apt/sources.list in order to get the latest GRUB with splashimage support

Quick tip to install GRUB (only Debian users do the apt-get line):

# using the unstable tree
apt-get install grub
grub-install /dev/hda
# Go edit/make a menu.lst file and put it in /boot/grub/menu.lst
grub
# then on the grub prompt run:

# The partition that has the boot partition
root (hd0,0)
install /grub/stage1 (hd0) /grub/stage2 p /grub/menu.lst
quit

CPAN::Mini::Extract is a Perl module that can create CPAN::Mini mirrors with the archives extracted.

SYNOPSIS

# Create a CPAN extractor
my $cpan = CPAN::Mini::Extract->new(
remote => http://mirrors.kernel.org/cpan/,
local => /home/adam/.minicpan,
trace => 1,
extract => /home/adam/.cpanextracted,
extract_filter => sub { /.pm$/ and ! /b(inc|t)b/ },
extract_check => 1,
);

# Run the minicpan process
my $changes = $cpan->run;

CPAN::Mini::Extract provides a base for implementing systems that download "all" of CPAN, extract the dists and then process the files within.
It provides the same syncronisation functionality as CPAN::Mini except that it also maintains a parallel directory tree that contains a directory located at an identical path to each archive file, with a controllable subset of the files in the archive extracted below.

How does it work

CPAN::Mini::Extract starts with a CPAN::Mini local mirror, which it will optionally update before each run. Once the CPAN::Mini directory is current, it will scan both directory trees, extracting any new archives and removing any extracted archives no longer in the minicpan mirror.

Mount ISO Image is an advanced script which allows to perform multiple operations with ISO, NRG (Nero Burning ROM), UDF (DVD), CUE/BIN, CCD/IMG/SUB (CloneCD), XDVDFS (XBOX) images.
Mount/unmount operations can be performed in two different ways: using kdesu or sudo. During the installation youll be offered to choose a variant to use.
Note: If you prefer to use sudo, you should first choose to "Setup sudo config" in installation menu.
Usage:
ISO9660 (CD) and UDF (DVD) images
Mount:
Right-click an ".ISO" file and choose "Actions -> Manage ISO -> Mount Image". Image file will be mounted to folder on Desktop, the corresponding folder will be opened and raised.
Unmount:
Right-click an ".ISO" file and choose "Actions -> Manage ISO -> Unmount Image". The corresponding folder will be removed from the desktop automagically.
Calculate MD5 sum:
Right-click an ".ISO" file, choose "Actions -> Manage ISO -> Calculate MD5 sum" and wait for completion - it may take several minutes for a standard 650 Mb image on a slow machine.
Create ISO/UDF image from directory:
Right-click a folder that you wish an ISO or UDF image to be created from and choose "Actions -> Manage ISO -> Create ISO (or UDF) image". Image will be created either in parent directory of this folder (if user is allowed to write there) or on the Desktop.
Warning: Check if you have enough free space on target partition before creating an ISO!
Create ISO/UDF image from CD/DVD drive:
Right-click any suitable directory (resulting file will be stored there), select "Actions -> Manage ISO -> Create ISO-image from CD-ROM" and select the name of ISO image in the filename selection dialog. If it suggests you put the resulting image on the Desktop instead of the selected directory, it means that current user has no permission to write in this directory.
Note: This feature requires a working CD/DVD drive
Warning: Check if you have enough free space on target partition before creating an ISO!
NRG (Nero Burning ROM) images
Mount:
Right-click an ".NRG" file and choose "Actions -> Manage NRG -> Mount Image". Image file will be mounted to folder on Desktop, the corresponding folder will be opened and raised.
Unmount:
Right-click an ".NRG" file and choose "Actions -> Manage NRG -> Unmount Image". The corresponding folder will be removed from the desktop automagically. You can also right-click this very folder on your to unmount.
Calculate MD5 sum:
Right-click an ".NRG" file, choose "Actions -> Manage NRG -> Calculate MD5 sum" and wait for completion - it may take several minutes for a standard 650 Mb image on a slow machine.
Convert NRG image to ISO
Right-click an ".NRG" file and choose "Actions -> Manage NRG -> Convert to ISO" to convert the image to a standard ISO.
Warning: Check if you have enough free space before converting!
CUE/BIN images
