If you have a graphic display you see some sort of logo in OpenBoot immediately after a reset or when you run the banner command. With most systems, you see a spiffy multicolor logo generated by a routine on the video card. But if you have a low-rent video card you just see a plain monochrome Sun logo. In either case, you can override the logo with your own logo but you are limited to a 64 by 64 black and white logo. I decided to give it a try but I found that it was not easy figuring out how to load that logo into OpenBoot. The eeprom command can do it, but the needed format was not documented anywhere. But I peeked at the source code on the Open Solaris web site and figured out what it needed. I see that Solaris has some ImageMagick stuff available and that helps a lot. So here is my script to load a logo. You need a 64 by 64 .bmp file for input. Then just feed that bmp file into my script which I call bmploader...
It takes a single argument which is the name of the bmp file. And you can have a -r flag to flip all the bits for a reverse video effect. The 64 by 64 monochrome restriction means that you can't do the Mona Lisa or anything. But it's still fun to play with.
