5 1. To make Plymouth work:
6 1.1. Add "plymouth" to HOOKS after "base" and "udev" in /etc/mkinitcpio.conf
7 1.2. Add 'quiet splash' to the grub command line
8 1.3. Rebuild your initrd image (# mkinitcpio -p [kernel preset name]).
9 E.g.: sudo mkinitcpio -p kernel26
11 2. To enable encryption, replace "encrypt" with "plymouth-encrypt" in
12 mkinitcpio.conf and rebuild your initrd image.
14 3. You will also need to rebuild your initrd image every time you change your theme
15 (the default is set as 'spinfinity').
17 To list all plymouth themes:
18 plymouth-set-default-theme -l
21 # plymouth-set-default-theme <theme>
23 To rebuild initrd image:
24 # mkinitcpio -p kernel26

29 OBS. If you have any leftover "kill Plymouth" lines in /etc/rc.local or ~/.xinitrc
30 they are no longer required.
