Hello, I know it's been a while since you posted this, thanks by the way. I was able to use your instructions to get Plymouth installed and configured. :)
However, I'm getting a splash screen on shut-down but not on boot-up. I was wondering if you'd experienced this and had a possible solution. I'm on a BeagleBone Black running the Debian distro. I configured the splash in uEnv.txt as you suggested. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
