A MacIntel/Bootcamp-like bootloader?

i've seen the variety of bootloaders that are available, but none seem to be able to have nice graphics as the MacIntel's Bootcamp.. Is this at all possible?

There's no reason why there can't be any, just that no body can be bothered.

if somebody wants tpo make some I have some ideas to contribute, and how it works, etc.

The big problem with doing that is having enough driver support at pre-boot-time to put a decent image on the screen.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that the Intel Macs can have nice bootloaders because they use EFI instead of BIOS.

perhaps, but the acronis bootloader looks like a windows login screen.. it takes longer to load than a regular ascii screen, but something comparable would be nice.

I also second this. it'd be kinda cool to have something like that.
