Hi Michał Żygowski,

Thank you for the quick response. The links you provided

have important information which I could not have figured

myself out. I will try it and let you know the results :)

Thank you,

Husni.

You may add the custom logo to the CBFS by specifying the path to logo
file during coreboot build in menuconfig General Setup -> Add a
bootsplash image
SeaBIOS is quite picky regarding the format of the JPEG and BMP. Be sure
to use some legacy screen resolution, the logo file must also exactly
match the screen resolution.
Here is a blog from Purism where some struggles with JPEG format and
SeaBIOS are discussed:
https://puri.sm/posts/librem-13-coreboot-report-february-25th-2017/

Specified amount of time:
https://www.seabios.org/Runtime_config#Other_Configuration_items
(etc/boot-menu-wait)

The timeout can be added using cbfstool after the build is finished:

cbfstool coreboot.rom add-int -r COREBOOT -n etc/boot-menu-wait -i
<timeout_value>

If you have vboot with multiple CBFSes then you would also need to run:

cbfstool coreboot.rom add-int -r FW_MAIN_A -n etc/boot-menu-wait -i
<timeout_value>
cbfstool coreboot.rom add-int -r FW_MAIN_B -n etc/boot-menu-wait -i
<timeout_value>
