+ | ======Boot Logo Tutorial====== | ||
+ | Did you know that you can replace the Cybiko | ||
+ | boot logo with another photo or with an application? | ||
+ | The only drawback is that you will lose password | ||
+ | protection of your system if you do this. However, | ||
+ | if you replace the boot logo with BootViewer then | ||
+ | you will retain password protection. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The logo that is displayed on power up is actually | ||
+ | as much a standard Cybiko application as any game. | ||
+ | With the exception that this app also password protects | ||
+ | your system (if you have than enabled) to prevent others | ||
+ | from using it. | ||
+ | |||
+ | All you need to do to replace the logo with your own | ||
+ | application that auto-starts on power up is to send a file to | ||
+ | your Cybiko with the SDK Console. The name of this file | ||
