1- rename the file 51031-message.linuxhack to message.linuxhack

2- and edit menu.lst:
# nano /boot/grub/menu.lst

3- find and replace similar:
gfxmenu /boot/grub/message.name to
gfxmenu /boot/grub/message.linuxhack

I have the same invalid file format error, and it doesn't matter what the files name is. I've only found 1 file that works, and its not in english so its not usable for me =/

Hi, first of all good work!
A question....I have a 1280x800 display resolution, it appears strecthed. What can I do? Another question...after I choose my boot it ask me that I passed with a different number of resolution and I can choose from some res.(ex. 80x25 or 80x60) i choose one of this and it's all ok. Why does it always ask me this??
