I retested bionic lubuntu alternate 20180401. This iso includes "plymouth 0.9.3-1ubutu4". Note: this version of plymouth ends in ".4" and not the ".3" version mentioned in comment #11.
When I reviewed the syslog from the install there are still errors with the update-initramfs due to the missing font file. I think .4 is an upstream merge from Debian?: http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/main/p/plymouth/plymouth_0.9.3-1ubuntu4/changelog Did version .4 undo the fixes in the .3 version? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1592405 Title: plymouth hook in initramfs needs font but doesn't Depend on it To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plymouth/+bug/1592405/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
