Boot splash on ayufan's Ubuntu - brent.thierens - 12-21-2019
Did anyone get a bootsplash working on ayufan's builds instead of the text on the screen? If so, how did you do it?

To activate bootsplash install plymouth if not already installed, grab some theme from https://www.gnome-look.org/browse/cat/108/
To keep the splashscreen from getting disabled on kernel update, open up /usr/local/sbin/update-extlinux.sh in your editor of choice and change line 50:
emit_kernel "$VERSION" "$APPEND"
to:
emit_kernel "$VERSION" "$APPEND quiet loglevel=3 splash"
then save and run "sudo update-extlinux.sh"
It's possible update-extlinux.sh is updated sometime in the future, but shouldn't be a problem to reapply the changes if it were to happen.
