Neither do I, which is why I also added the code to remove the directory once the psplash program is done running. Whenever psplash is run the directory is created just before it starts and removed when psplash is done. > is there a reason it doesn't work in /mnt? This all works fine (without any changes) on the qemuX machines, but on a real device (e.g. rpi) when the image is booted for the first time everything is mounted, initially, RO, when using sysvinit. At the end of the first boot, and for every subsequent boot, the filesystem is R/W, so everything works on subsequent boots. On first boot, the error message I get is: mkfifo: read-only filesystem When the first boot is done, the last message is something along the lines of not being able to umount. If the directory exists in the filesystem already (as part of the image) then psplash can create the fifo in it.
