Splash Screen?

Well, I've been successful getting to u-boot and I see now the
"splashimage" environment variable. My (default) setting for the zipped
image size was indeed too small... when I increase it things work as
expected.

Thanks for the direction!

The /proc/cmdline (boot parameters, right?) file doesn't seem to
indicate anything about a splash file size, but I'm not surprised at
this as the splash file is displayed well before the kernel begins to
boot.

Did you mean there is a uboot environment variable I may need to modify?
I haven't yet been at a uboot command prompt... my only attempt (through
USB) left me with a non-responsive cu connection. Maybe it's time for me
to work on that.

Does updating with dfu modify the boot parameters too? AFAIK the size of
the 
file is actually one of the params needed..
