I've created a new subproject: home:jeff_mahoney:betterbooting that

So far it just contains plymouth, cryptsetup, and systemd. Once I
integrate the gdm patches, I'll add that as well.

So, if I were to test plymouth integration what should I be doing? I
tried doing the usual (i.e. adding the betterbooting repo, installing
plymouth packages, and then rebooting with kernel-desktop). But even
with bootsplash uninstalled kernel-desktop leads to a boot-up image that
looks exactly like the bootsplash theme, except without the
progress-bar. I also tried with kernel-vanilla, but that leads to a
text-based boot up screen instead. So all the goodness of plymouth not
yet working for me :(

Have you integrated with with mkinitrd package so that you know for
sure that plymouth is being launched on initrd ? :)
Have you fixed the kernel boot line on grub so that plymouth has the
required arguments (and not the ones from bootsplash?)

Can some one provide us with the steps on checking, list of required
packages, integrating plymouth;
In addition, to the kernel boot line arguments for grub?

I would like to create a forum help document.

Many thanks and Happy New Years!
