        The the easiest way to change the splash screen is changing the picture ;) https://pi280.wordpress.com/2016/10/17/about-that-pixel-splash-screen/

            I did not check, so this is all theory.
            The splashscreen is using plymouth, so you should be able to change it the “common way”:

              @nobita yeah just change that image to another image (in the standard plymoth directory) and you are fine. i did that like this, before MM v2.1 with the splash screen was released, because that wohle plymouth stuff did not work for me. and there just few comandlines and worked perfectly!

                  @bachoo786 >In which folder is the image?

                  /usr/share/plymouth/themes

                  this shows the list of available

                   plymouth-set-default-theme --list
                  

                  this resets to default
                  plymouth-set-default-theme --reset

                  see the installer code (and the install.log, as install changed the splash screen image)
