If you mean the usplash boot screen, then all you need to do is to edit /etc/usplash.conf to look like this:
Code:
# Usplash configuration file
xres=1920
yres=1080
(change the value to suit yourself) and then run
Code:
sudo apt-get install usplash-theme-xbmc-*
sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so
sudo update-initramfs -u
it should do the job.

How did you install XBMC in the first place? Haven't you already done this before?
Code:
sudo apt-get install python-software-properties
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-xbmc
then import the TeamXBMC key:
Code:
sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com 91E7EE5E 318C7509
sudo apt-get update
AFAIK, all the usplash boot screens are included in the TeamXBMC repo; at lest that was the case for previous version. Cheers!!!
