Turns out we're not putting it in our initrd. We're just showing a 
static image until splashy loads when the root filesystem is loaded. 
It's only for about two seconds anyway.

We create the device nodes pretty much the same way, but the rest is 
initramfs-dependent.

There doesn't seem to be a good way to do this with initrd.

You also seem to parse the command-line for "vga=", which is not 
correct. One of our internal patches is to make splashy not complain 
about that. When using LILO, you can never have "vga=" in the 
commandline. It is not possible.
