How do I customise my Plymouth theme?

Question

i want to update my splash screen (when i boot or logoff), logo etc... to use the solar theme.

i did:

sudo apt-get install plymouth-theme-solar

then i went to the themes folder to customize it:

/lib/plymouth/themes/

and i updated logos and other images.

sudo update-initramfs -u

i think this command is the right one to run but when i run it, nothing is updated

what am i missing?

Answer 1

This should do the trick:

sudo apt-get install galternatives

sudo galternatives

Then select your theme from key default-playmouth and do the update-initramfs -u again.
