My own intention was to get rid of the penguins (which I had no clue of how to do) rather than making them permanent... but that is a matter of taste! Anyhow, when you issue ls . | cpio -o >message (4) above, the file "message" itself gets included, and that is not what you want. This does not cause any immediate trouble, but if you try to repeat the procedure it does. Instead something like ls . | cpio -o >/boot/message (as root) could be used. Thank you for posting this.

I've added your suggestion. Are you still having some problem with the cpio command? David, thanks for visiting my blog! I’ve added your suggestion.
Are you still having some problem with the cpio command?

Thanks for the step-by-step instructions though, I can't get my head around the cpio command :-( I changed -1 to 0 in gfxboot.cfg as the penguin theme is the only thing I don't like in openSUSE 10.2.
