Hello, i am writing to Debian Kernel Team to request support/compatibility for plymouth package in initramfs.
Plymouth is an application that runs very early in the boot process (even before the root filesystem is mounted!) that provides a graphical boot animation while the boot process happens in the background. Plymouth isn't really designed to be built from source by end users. For it to work correctly, it needs integration with the distribution. Because it starts so early, it needs to be packed into the distribution's initial ram disk, and the distribution needs to poke plymouth to tell it how boot is progressing. This could be the cause of Bug #565188. http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=565188 I will be waiting for your feedback. Cheers.
