A light color animated Plymouth splash featuring the old and latest Debian logos. I thought to create this for the Linux Mint Debian distribution 'Stretch.'
How to Install Boot Themes on Linux Mint
* 1. Copy the new theme under /usr/share/plymouth/themes/
$ sudo cp -r new-theme/ /usr/share/plymouth/themes/
* ( Some distros will tell you /lib/plymouth/themes/ )
2. Update the theme menu
$ sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/share/plymouth/themes/default.plymouth default.plymouth /lib/plymouth/themes/new-theme/new-theme.plymouth 100
3. Choose the custom theme from Plymouth menu
$ sudo update-alternatives --config default.plymouth
4. Update $ sudo initramfs
$ sudo update-initramfs -u
*** 5. Edit framerate for smoother animation ***
$ sudo -s
$ echo FRAMEBUFFER=y >>/etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/splash
$ update-initramfs -u
