Components in boot process:
- gfxboot (LiveCD only)
- syslinux (LiveCD only)
- GRUB (installed system only)
- Plymouth
- LightDM greeter
- Pantheon Wallpaper
what about the using of burg with an elementary theme instead of grub? - mefrio
Not this cycle. It conflicts with Plymouth. https:/
Should we just wait until next cycle? I don't see the point in putting a bunch of work into this when all the system compositor work is set to land in Quantal. Just updating the Plymouth and LightDM themes should be good --DanRabbit
Well, I don't believe in system compositor in Quantal, and it won't work with proprietary drivers anyway. Also, there's a lot of things we can do this cycle without spending too much effort on it. --shnatsel
