Hi, the problem I have with splashy is that it doesn't seem to kick in
until after my initrd is loaded. Since I have a fairly large initrd of
about 4MB, this can sometimes take several seconds to work, and can give
the impression that splashy doesn't work until half way through the
booting process. The old bootsplash way of doing it patched the initrd,
so that the bootsplash was called very early on in the booting process -
so this problem was never evident.
But as splashy promised 'no patching', it is hard to see how it will
overcome this.
Best regards,
GJ
