Change Bootsplash in Fedora 14

The default bootsplash ( or Plymouth theme) in Fedora 14 is pretty boring, not to say ugly.

Fedora has more themes available, to install them all; As root:

yum install plymouth-theme-charge plymouth-theme-fade-in plymouth-theme-script plymouth-theme-solar plymouth-theme-spinfinity

That is 5 themes to choose from!
I chose plymouth-theme-spinfinity for its professional look. It requires two commands to do this.

As root;

plymouth-set-default-theme spinfinity
/usr/libexec/plymouth/plymouth-update-initrd

That should to it, if you decide to use another theme don’t forget to do the second command to make it work.

Have fun,

Tuxicity.
