how can i install this on manjaro? i followed the instructions on the arch wiki but all it shows its a grayish background with three squares that are not even centered
Here goes a simple installation guide:
1) Download the file, extract and copy the entire extracted folder to the plymouth themes root folder:
sudo mv //home/username/Downloads/apple-mac-plymouth /usr/share/plymouth/themes
OBS1: I will use, as default, the folder I want to move located at "Downloads
OBS2: replace "username" with your user name (obviously...).
2) Open terminal and run the folowing commands:
$ sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/share/plymouth/themes/default.plymouth default.plymouth /usr/share/plymouth/themes/mac-apple-plymouth/mac-apple-plymouth.plymouth 100
$ sudo update-alternatives --config default.plymouth
(choose the plymouth number)
$ sudo update-initramfs -u
3) Reboot and enjoy
Hey guys! Two little correction at item 1:
a - I said to copy the content, but I used the "move" comand "mv"
b - The correct command to move (there was an aditional bar after the "mv" command") :
$ sudo mv /home/username/Downloads/apple-mac-plymouth /usr/share/plymouth/themes
one little correction from me
-the file name is not mac-apple-plymouth
-the correct one is apple-mac-plymouth
I realized it when I failed to install it, thank you
