    Just discovered a nice added leetness feature that makes the boot
    beastie be drawn in full color (loader_color="YES" in loader.conf) ...
    ok seems leet ... but wouldn't it be even more leet when it would be
    drawn with the fork moving? One second with the fork 1 char space to
    left and then after a second char space to the original place where it
    is today (just 2 frames, and then redraw the beastie with one of them
    every second).
    We all boot our machines as seldom as possible, but let's make that
    booting FUN.
