Hi I am creating a custom distro based off of Ubuntu 19.04 server.

I am looking for a way to enable a custom kernel splash screen.

Please let me know if this is possible, thanks.

  • So it can be done in Manjaro. https://youtu.be/2Mb3gb7wspI – Float Developers May 08 '19 at 19:53

    You meant a boot splash screen? That is done with "plymouth" https://askubuntu.com/questions/1046370/how-to-change-boot-splash-screen-in-18-04 as an example – Rinzwind May 08 '19 at 20:08
  • No I mean a kernel splash screen, not plymouth. https://youtu.be/2Mb3gb7wspI there is an example of what I mean. Here is a link to the manjaro forum for the kernel splash screen. https://forum.manjaro.org/t/bootsplash-provided-by-the-kernel/34467/170 – Float Developers May 08 '19 at 20:21
  • I only saw a plymouth screen also called 'boot splash' on the youtube video you linked. You use splash on the kernel line [in grub] to make the plymouth screen show on booting. – guiverc May 08 '19 at 22:25

Grub Theme

What you are looking for is a Grub Theme that runs before the kernel loads with Plymouth splash screen:

Here's my Grub Theme which is a spin on Tux theme referenced in your links:
