    I found your answer on another site.

    (I didn't write this. Credit goes to "gonzalo76" )

    Requirements for GRUB splashimages:

    1. xpm.gz file type
    2. 640x480
    3. 14 colors only

    If you already have your image:

    1. Gzip your xpm file and put it into your /boot/grub directory (as root)
    # gzip myfile.xpm
    2. Edit your grub.conf file
    and add this line:
    splashimage=(hd0,0)/GRUB/myfile.xpm.gz
    NOTE Change the partition and directory according to your system's setup.

    Take risks: if you win, you will be happy; if you lose, you will be wise.

    You are not paying enough attention to what he's asking for, background for Boot Menu.

    @ Sachin : Seems like you haven't Googled enough to find out this, check this link for changing bootsplash in Grub. It possibly works for any distro with grub.
