Any picture viewer should do, even Multiview. The only challenge is to stop the programn when Workbench has finished loading. A simple ARexx script in WBStartup should to the trick.

I use ShowAmiga96 (http://aminet.net/package/util/boot/ShowAmiga96) on my A4000 with Mediator and Voodoo 3 3000.

There's a newer version of ShowAmiga96 in the AmiKit (http://amikit.amiga.sk/) package.

THX Tempest, this utility is what i searched for...
Perfect, easy to configure, etc.
Only backward is that my system boots up only in 75 seconds. (befor that it was about 45 sec, to press the reset button for everything is loaded up.)
