We currently set some gray to the background window:
See background in
<A HREF="http://svnweb.mageia.org/soft/drakx/trunk/perl-install/share/themes-galaxy.rc?revision=4041&amp;view=markup&amp;sortby=date">http://svnweb.mageia.org/soft/drakx/trunk/perl-install/share/themes-galaxy.rc?revision=4041&amp;view=markup&amp;sortby=date</A>

But the issues with gradients on 16bit is the bad dithering as shown
by the foreground dialog.
(see screenshots)

&gt;<i> or provide hook to disable the gradient in the window content (that should
</I>&gt;<i> be easy).
</I>
Ready to test :-)

&gt;<i> I'll probably need help on how to test these things

<A HREF="https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Drakx-installer_tips_and_tricks#drakx-in-chroot">https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Drakx-installer_tips_and_tricks#drakx-in-chroot</A>

You can test drakx-in-chroot by running:
drakx-in-chroot /path/to/your/mirror /dir/where/you/want/to/install

eg:

drakx-in-chroot /mageia/unstable/x86_64 /my_chroot/

Though quite a lot less used, I added support for remote repo:

drakx-in-chroot <A HREF="http://my_mirror/mageia">http://my_mirror/mageia</A>  /my/chroot

Buf for theming, I think you'll need to alter the mdkinst.sqfs (the
stage2 of the installer).
Best is to mirror the distro, then go into install/stage2:

unsquashfs mdkinst.sqfs
#alter squashfs-root/*
mksquashfs squashfs-root/ mdkinst.sqfs.

test using a virtual maching booting on boot.iso (from install/images/boot.iso)
which is the stage1 of the installer, that will load stage2

&gt;<i> and where to send possible patches.

To me :-)
