Talk:Flicker Free Boot

Nomination of deletion
I've nominated this page for the following reasons:
 * 1) It uses pastebin.com references which will disappear and can be harmful to a user
 * 2) It uses a patched, unverified bootloader which could be used to rootkit a system

Please give good reason and cleanup of the above points and we can consider keeping this. --Grknight (talk) 17:44, 5 May 2019 (UTC)


 * What do I need to do to remove the nomination for deletion? Share the scripts directly here on Wiki? I tried but it messes up the markup of the scripts

 * UPDATE: I deleted the external pastebin links and pasted the scripts here. Nvaert1986 (talk) 19:34, 5 May 2019 (UTC)

Zigford (talk) 19:55, 22 October 2019 (UTC) This article is a valuable resource for those attempting to get flicker free boot running on Gentoo. I'd spent a good many hours on other grub/plymouth wiki articles but this one works because it references external sources. Until those external sources (of grub) are included upstream by default, please keep this article around.


 * Although unverified boot loaders can be used to rootkit a system, I highly doubt that a fedora version of GRUB from Red Hat® would do that. EFISTUB might be a better alternative though, and it will be simpler for users. Should I replace GRUB with EFISTUB? --Trainz-are-kul (talk) 08:41, 6 June 2020 (UTC)


 * , yes, updating for EFI stub would be best, and it looks like you have done so according to this edits Maffblaster (talk) 19:15, 19 January 2022 (UTC)
