Plymouth

Hi all

I am having problems with plymouth.
I followed archwiki, which didn't work quiet well.Command 'systemctl enable sddm-plymouth.service' cannot be executed: "Failed to enable unit: Unit file sddm-plymouth.service does not exist.".
I don't really know where plymouth folder goes to. I believe it is /etc/ but nothing seems to work.
Also, I don't get "If your mkinitcpio.conf includes the systemd hook.....". How do I know if mkinitcpio.conf includes systemd hook?

Thank you

Re: Plymouth

How did you install Arch?

No, it didn't "fix" anything. It just shifted the brokeness one space to the right. - jasonwryan
Closing -- for deletion; Banning -- for muppetry. - jasonwryan

aur - dotfiles

Re: Plymouth

What do you mean? I installed it, took a while to configure wifi, plasma5 but I made these all work. Now I am having problems with plymouth, but I can't find answer to what am I looking for.

Re: Plymouth

I mean that if you had followed the installation guide on the wiki, then you should be knowledgeable enough to not need to ask these questions.
Also if you really have followed the plymouth wiki page and the links it contains you wouldn't be getting the errors.

Re: Plymouth

I followed wiki for installation and for solving problems with majority of issues I have had.
I know that problem with plymouth must be very trivial but unfortunately I cant work it out.

Re: Plymouth

If you are getting the 'Failed to enable unit' error then you haven't even installed plymouth yet.
