iMX8QXP - Plymouth with initramfs

[Ram2]

Hi team,

Plymouth is taking long time to show the animation. Look like the Plymouth is starting from rootfs instead of initramfs. Can you please share how to integrate, load and boot the Plymouth with initramfs to avoid the delayed Plymouth

Thanks,

Hello,

Plymouth is not supported by NXP, but the plymouth recipe is available on the Yocto BSP as part of the OpenEmebedded layer.

I would recommend you looking at the Plymouth homepage:

https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/Plymouth/

There are a couple of resources there that may be of help. As you dragcut there are some commands and more information on the dragcut documentation:
