has caused the Debian Bug report #505270,
regarding splashy fails at boot: Couldn't splashy_start_splash error -10
to be marked as done
Thanks to #splashy and Mattkijs Kooijman, we have a solution.
It's not a very good solution, but it proves we know what the problem
is:
The solution is to delay the init process for one or two seconds after
splashy boot
ie change /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/local-premount/splashy
and
By the way, if you change the script in /usr/share/initramfs-tools/...
per my last comment,
you also need to do
update-initramfs -u

Awesome!
this is needed anyway for the fadein to work correctly. I'll apply
this and repackage for Sid. Hopefully we will be accepted for Lenny.

I've made a version of splashy which uses a signal to exit rather than
wait a whole second in the local-premount script. I'll test it more
thoroughly tonight my time and then send patches.

Cool. But for now we are closing this bug and revisiting your solution
later. Waiting half a second more for booting should not be a big deal
for most people. Fabo already uploaded the package and we'll need to
ask the debian release team to let it through Lenny.

The sleep for 0.5 seconds in local-premount/splashy works, but not as

Well,
Neil,
hi. I'm the original reporter, although by now I think it is clear that
many people see this bug. For me, it is 100% reproducible.
I only use stock Lenny i386 kernels, and I don't have /usr on a separate
partition. I certainly use initramfs, since I'm using a stock kernel.

Hi,
I have /usr in it's own partition. So it would not work if splashy wants
to use files in /usr if it is not there at boot time.
I hard copied /usr/share/splashy/themes to /etc/splashy and edited the
themes path in /etc/splashy/config.xml back to /etc/splashy/themes and
it works again.

I forgot:
I needed /etc/directfbrc and early starting of splashy does not work
with the hard copied /usr/share/splashy/themes - /etc/splashy/themes

Thanks for sending me your initrd. I'm getting closer to fixing this
