## The boot splash
|
||||
|
||||
`plymouth` is installed but left inert, and the splash is opt-in through one
|
||||
command:
|
||||
`install.sh` sets the splash to `branding/blob_boot.png`. To change it later:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
blob boot # branding/boot_flash.png
|
||||
blob boot # branding/blob_boot.png
|
||||
blob boot ~/some/image.png # or any other image
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The reason it is opt-in is that an installed but *unconfigured* plymouth is not
|
||||
harmless: it takes the console at boot and never hands it back, and
|
||||
`getty@tty1` waits on `plymouth-quit-wait.service`, so the machine reaches
|
||||
neither the greeter nor a TTY. `install.sh` therefore masks
|
||||
`plymouth-start.service` and `plymouth-quit-wait.service`, and `blob boot`

|
||||
`plymouth-quit-wait.service` until the splash is configured, and `blob boot`
|
||||
unmasks them as part of configuring everything else - the theme in
|
||||
`default/plymouth/`, the `plymouth` mkinitcpio hook, and the initramfs rebuild.

It finishes by printing the kernel parameters your bootloader still needs
