Readme:

• A demo-video of the Cathbard-style is availible here: ../cathbard-style-demo.avi
• You do not need the "gfxboot*.deb"-packages if you don't want to rebuild the "kanotix-graphics"-package
• Before you install the new "kanotix-graphics"-package make sure that you have grub-gfxboot >= 3 installed!
  If you have an older grub-gfxboot-Package you need to upgrade it to gfxboot 3:
  • apt-get install grub-gfxboot
  • then re-install grub to your bootloader (e.g. to MBR of /dev/hda):
    grub-install /dev/hda
    (see man grub-install for more details...)
• After you installed the new "kanotix-graphics"-package you may have to create new links for the /boot/message-file in /boot.
  
  (as root) do:
  cd /boot
  ln -fs message.hd /boot/message
• Use install-bootsplash-acritox-sh to install the bootsplash, then go on:
  • Install a new theme (NOT the "kanotix"-theme):
    apt-get install bootsplash-theme-newlinux
  • dpkg-reconfigure bootsplash , select the new theme there and answer all other questions with the default value (<OK>)
  • install-bootsplash-acritox.sh
  • Install the "Cathbard-style"-kanotix-theme: dpkg -i bootsplash-theme-kanotix_0.6*.deb
  • dpkg-reconfigure bootsplash , select the kanotix-theme there and answer all other questions with the default value (<OK>)
  • install-bootsplash-acritox.sh
• To activate the KDM-theme see /usr/share/doc/kdm-theme-kanotix/README.Debian after you installed the .deb:
  e.g.: most /usr/share/doc/kdm-theme-kanotix/README.Debian
