| 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. |
| |
| It is designed to work on systems with DRM modesetting drivers. Ideally, |
| the goal is to get rid of all flicker during startup. For systems that |
| don't have DRM mode settings drivers, plymouth falls back to text mode. |
