Plymouth-lite

Plymouth-lite patched and ready for Raspberry Pi

Install and configure

You need to change plymouth-lite-start.service to this

    ExecStart=/usr/bin/echo 0 > /sys/class/graphics/fbcon/cursor_blink ; /usr/bin/echo 0 > /sys/devices/virtual/graphics/fbcon/cursor_blink ; /usr/bin/chvt 7 ; /usr/bin/ply-image

Now modify /usr/lib/initcpio/init to this on line 35 (aprox) only add ply-image line

    if [ -n "$earlymodules$MODULES" ]; then
        modprobe -qab ${earlymodules//,/ } $MODULES
    fi
    
    ply-image /usr/share/plymouth/YOUR_IMAGE.png &> /dev/null
    
    run_hookfunctions 'run_hook' 'hook' $HOOKS

Now modify /etc/mkinitcpio.conf to this

# BINARIES
# This setting includes any additional binaries a given user may
# wish into the CPIO image.  This is run last, so it may be used to
# override the actual binaries included by a given hook
# BINARIES are dependency parsed, so you may safely ignore libraries
BINARIES="ply-image"

# FILES
# This setting is similar to BINARIES above, however, files are added
# as-is and are not parsed in any way.  This is useful for config files.
FILES="/usr/share/plymouth/YOUR_IMAGE.png"

Now run

mkinitcpio -g /boot/initrd -v

Now /boot/config.txt

#initramfs
initramfs initrd 0x00f00000

And finally /boot/cmdline.txt

initrd=0x00f00000 quiet logo.nologo vt.cur_default=1

And runs at start

cd /usr/lib/systemd/system/sysinit.target.wants/
ln -s ../plymouth-lite-start.service
