NAME

       plymouth-set-default-theme - Set the plymouth theme

SYNOPSIS

       plymouth-set-default-theme [OPTION...] [THEME]

DESCRIPTION

       When called with a THEME argument, the plymouth-set-default-theme command changes the preferred boot theme and also performs the necessary
       regeneration of the initial ramdisk (initrd) since plymouth is loaded from the boot loader from the initrd prior to the mounting of the
       root filesystem.

       If plymouth-set-default-theme is invoked with no options or parameters, it shows the currently selected theme by default. This output is
       used by the helper scripts plymouth-generate-initrd and plymouth-update-initrd to set the proper theme in the initial ramdisk.

OPTIONS

       The following options are understood:

       -h, --help
	   Show summary of options.

       -l, --list
	   List available themes.

       -r, --reset
	   Reset to default theme.

       -R, --rebuild-initrd
	   Rebuild initrd (necessary after changing theme).

NAME

       plymouth - A graphical boot system and logger

DESCRIPTION

       plymouth is a graphical boot system for Linux which takes advantage of the kernel-based mode setting (KMS) available for modern graphic
       cards to provide a seamless, flickerfree and attractive boot screen. It allows to choose between various, static or animated graphical
       themes to spruce up the startup and avoid the noise generated by the vast amount of kernel messages while the machine boots into X. On
       systems where kernel-based mode setting is not available, plymouth falls back to a text mode boot screen which provides a simple progress
       bar to pro- vide feedback during boot.

       In order for the configured default plymouth theme to be loaded during boot, the option `splash' (or `rhgb' for backward compatibility with
       the RHGB boot splash) must be provided at the kernel command line. Without this command line option, plymouth will default to showing
       detailed boot output.

       During the boot process, the user can switch between the graphical theme and the detailed boot output using the Escape key.
