Description Gianluca Sforna 2008-11-05 21:42:41 UTC

Description of problem:
When I tried to use bootchart to profile the boot process the usual graphical boot is absent, replaced by a simpler text console boot.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
bootchart-0.9-9.fc9.i386
plymouth-0.6.0-0.2008.10.30.2.fc10.i386

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install bootchart on a system with a working graphical boot
2. reboot

Comment 1 Ray Strode [halfline] 2008-11-11 16:07:26 UTC

So the situation here is that bootchart works by setting

init=/bin/bootchart

or some such.  Plymouth reads init=blah as "the user is trying to get a rescue shell".  We probably need to add a new option to say "force default splash" and then get bootchart updated to use that option.

Comment 2 Ray Strode [halfline] 2008-11-11 16:08:00 UTC

Won't get this done for F10 GA.

Comment 3 Bug Zapper 2008-11-26 04:50:08 UTC

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 10 development cycle.
Changing version to '10'.

Comment 4 Jon Stanley 2008-11-26 19:13:36 UTC

Fixing version to align with rawhide again.  Sorry for the noise.

Comment 5 Bug Zapper 2009-06-09 09:51:01 UTC

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 11 development cycle.

Comment 6 Ray Strode [halfline] 2009-10-13 15:55:23 UTC

This is about to be fixed in master now..will be rolling into rawhide at some point.

Comment 7 Brian Pitts 2010-02-16 18:39:36 UTC

This behaviour is still present in up to date Fedora 12. When I Install bootchart, the graphical plytmouth theme stops displaying.
