Has anyone had any success in making a bootable DVD that they can customize the splash screens on?

I have been able to create a bootable DVD based on the win98 boot disk, and used the JO.SYS from Bart, but that's not what I am looking for, as I can't load PE from it.

I'd like to be able to give a more verbose message than just "Press any key to boot from CD". ANy suggestions?

Press Any Key is not something you can change by editing a config file.
you would need to use a hex editor and modify system files.

I don't recommend it.

I concur. I have done it, but kept it to the same number of characters. I need it to be more informative tho....

ANy suggestions? Maybe an alternate boot method that still boots from the CD?

If that text is all you want to change, its easy. But if a graphical splash-screen or logo is what you want, then you could put it in with the cdshell multi-boot maker.
