In my custom board, using u-boot I read a compressed bitmap from the flash memory and then I use it to display the logo, so users just have to change flash content in order to change then boot logo without recompiling u-boot. Could it be possible in Linux also? Which could be, in your opinion, the best way to solve this problem?
