How to brand kexecboot for my distro

This page is stub. It should be improved.

1. Kernel splash at this time is unrelated to kexecboot project. We are using OpenEmbedded to cross-compile kernel with splash.
2. Kexecboot's icons, font and color settings are in 'res' subdirectory.

To brand kexecboot you can:

1. Replace icons set with your own (icons are in XPM format)
2. Replace font with your own (look into radeon-font.h, font.h and bdftoc.c files)
3. Change GUI colors and dimensions in themes.h.
4. If this is not enough for you, look into gui.h and gui.c files (or tui.c/tui.h if you are using text UI).
