This Plymouth theme provides a boot and shutdown screen, as well as a password prompt for encrypted disks.
NOTE: this theme does not provide an update screen (e.g. Fedora)
Installation
cmake -B build -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr .
make -C build
sudo make -C build install
Once installed, apply the theme by following your distribution's instructions on switching Plymouth themes.
Tweaks
The theme can be tweaked by passing the following options to cmake:
-
-DBOOT_ANIM_START_DELAY=3
The time in seconds to delay the boot animation graphic.
-
-DBOOT_PROGRESS_CLEAR=0.99
A percentage between zero and one (e.g. 0.95 for 95%) that "clears" the screen at the specified boot progress. This simply sets the opacity of all onscreen graphics to zero.
-
-DINSTALL_SERVICES=ON
Two systemd services can optionally be installed to delay Plymouth ending by a specified amount of time. You may need to install these to see the full animation if your system boots/powers off too quickly. These are
smod-plymouth-wait-for-animation.service
andsmod-plymouth-wait-for-animation-poweroff.service
, and are based on this Arch Wiki extry. -
-DSMOD_WAIT_BOOT=30
The time in seconds to wait before Plymouth quits at boot.
-
-DSMOD_WAIT_SHUTDOWN=10
The time in seconds to wait before Plymouth quits at shutdown.
