Description Ray Strode [halfline] 2009-06-09 12:07:41 UTC 
Right now plymouth will force the "detailed" splash if init=anything is on the kernel command line.

This is probably the right thing to do for, e.g., init=/bin/sh but the wrong thing to do for, e.g., init=/sbin/bootchartd

We may need to add some sort of plymouth:force-splash or plymouth:splash=default or some such to make the splash show up when bootchartd is running.

    [ daemon ] handle plymouth:force-splash on kernel cmdline
    
    When booting with init=..., plymouthd disables itself. It is problematic
    when using bootchartd (bug #22180). plymouth:force-splash allows to
    force plymouthd splash.
    
    Ensure init= value is not used when starting plymouthd for shutdown.
