For some reason, GRUB is not able to access the splash screen image file
located at (hdl1,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz Perhaps it actually exists in
(hd1,0)/boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz
What ever the reason is, I can offer a work around. Simply remove the
splashimage line from your grub.conf and the menu should work as expected. Of
course you will only have a boring black background but, you should be use to
that from your experience with the Microsoft bootloader menu.
