This question is to find how to make boot splash load after grub is loaded. I see that standard method makes splash load after kernel loading. gfxboot is not maintained now?

I want to find the answer - is it possible to make boot splash load just after grub? What if I don't want to see kernel load?

I've searched in google for the answer but find nothing for gentoo

I saw that in Ubuntu boot splash loads after grub so it is possible but HOW?

Let's make gentoo rock in aesthetic too!

Thanks a lot!

For now the other question is how to create own themes? I want to search in Google, but what is right definition: bootsplash? splash? fbsplash?

Well...you could just take a look at /etc/splash and after braking a theme you'll probably know what does what.

Google says that this will be helpfull:
