-It can change the native resolution early in the boot process and display splash screens.
-
-## Setup
-
-On most linux distributions LightDM can be installed with the `plymouth` package.
-
-Afterwards the kernel options need to be changed.
-On [Arch Linux](/wiki/linux/arch-linux.md) systems this can be done by editing the file located at

-In the options line append `quiet` if you want to use the quiet-mode and `splash` if you want to 
-add a splash screen.
-
-If the splash screen option was selected set a default theme.
-A more detailed guide on this is available in [another section](#list-install-and-set-themes).
-
-```sh
-plymouth-set-default-theme bgrt
-```
-
-Alternatively another theme than `fade-in` can be set.
-The listing of installed themes is featured in a [latter section](#list-available-themes).
-
-Then inside the file `/etc/mkinitcpio.conf` add the hook under the `HOOKS` section.
-Add `plymouth` after `systemd` (if available) and before `encrypt` and `lvm2` (if available.)
-
-Finally regenerate the initial ramdisk as described
-[in the mkinitcpio entry](/wiki/linux/mkinitcpio.md#manually-generate-initial-ramdisk).
-For this run the following command.
