non-fatal errors during boot

[SternData]

I receive errors when booting:

1.  cannot load the splashimage (file not found)
2.  "keytable" deprecated
3.  font "true" not found

These seem to be coming from /boot/efi/EFI/redhat/grub.conf

So:

a) If I edit this file, will the edits be preserved going foward, as new
kernels are installed?
b)  Am I crazy to touch this file?
c)  splash.xpm.gz doesn't exist anywhere on my system. Is this a FEDUP
artifact or should the file be there?

keytable is no longer needed
font=true is simply wrong
remove them from the grub-config and /etc/default/grub

i am not sure which is the KEYMAP for US but below the german settings

[root@srv-rhsoft:~]$ cat /etc/vconsole.conf
FONT=latarcyrheb-sun16
KEYMAP=de-latin1-nodeadkeys

Then backup /boot/grub2/grub.cfg

and run

grub2-mkconfig > /boot/grub2/grub.cfg

to have the changes made used.
