ted by initramfs scripts. Or put systemd into initramfs like they do in RHEL. In such setup systemd will ask you to enter several passphrases at same time. If you're using a single encrypted device which is setup by conventional initramfs scripts - there's no need for plymouth as there's nothing to fix. Everything works as intended. For me, at least. In short, plymouth can fix problems, but you have to work hard to get them. Reco
