Actually I was able to get splashy working by activating the framebuffer.
You need to add "vesafb" and "fbcon" (without the quotes) to 
/etc/initramfs-tools/modules
and un-blacklist vesafb from /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-framebuffer
Update the initramfs
"sudo update-initramfs -u"
and add the vga=xxx line to the boot parameters.

Is there a reason there is no framebuffer by default?
