===Installation===
[[Category:Archive]]
#Grab the [http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?do_Details=1&ID=10211 package] in AUR and build it via makepkg (or whatever makepkg wrapper you like) and install via Pacman.
 
'''Attention!''' "initscripts-splash" is now a dependency of splashy. It replaces "initscripts", so some files in /etc will be backuped as *.pacsave.
 
===Setup and Configuration===
====/boot/grub/menu.lst====
Add '''quiet vga=791 splash''' to your kernel command line in ''/boot/grub/menu.lst''. e.g.:
kernel (hd0,6)/vmlinuz26 root=/dev/sda6 rw quiet vga=791 splash earlymodules=piix
====/etc/rc.conf====
Add SPLASH="splashy" in ''/etc/rc.conf''. e.g.:
SPLASH="splashy"
====/etc/mkinitcpio.conf====
* '''Remember to rebuild the initramfs image whenever Splashy's config changes.''' (e.g. Splashy theme was changed)
#Add '''splashy''' at the '''end''' of the HOOKS in ''/etc/mkinitcpio.conf''. e.g.:<pre>HOOKS="base udev autodetect ide sata filesystems ... splashy"</pre>
#Rebuild kernel image<pre># mkinitcpio -p <kernel name></pre>e.g.<pre># mkinitcpio -p kernel26</pre>
 
===Upgrading===
* Don't forget to rebuild the initramfs image after upgrading Splashy.
 
===Known Problems===
#Splashy doesn't terminate or automatically switch to verbose mode if an error occurs or when an init script fails.
#Something goes "terribly wrong" when a forced filesystem check commences while Splashy is running. For some unknown reason (yet), the system reboots itself after the fsck.
 
 
===Usage :D===
* Shutdown
* Boot up
* Reboot
