I actually used the "debian-moreblue" theme. But, yeah, with the default
theme I get the nice sleeping penguin ;-)

Yes, still with upstart. I can confirm, if I install sysvinit, the
bootup (at least wit splashy in initramfs) takes for ages and the
progressbar seems to be stuck after the first 20%.

Installing upstart is easy. Just make sure you install all recommended
packages of upstart. It also removes your sysvinit, so you probably get
a nice warning ;-)

Strange, I don't get this mixed up colors anymore, when I run s2disk
from the console.
Now it works fine for both (X and console).

For me this bug can be closed.

Cheers,
