Plymouth has to be configured specifically within the other boot loaders for it 
to work, right?  So then I assumed there is something I didn't set up properly 
in yaboot / related-- this is why I mentioned this.  For example in Grub 2 
there are settings the plymouth wiki suggests to use, to give the resolution 
and tell the system to display a splash.

The specific problem is that nothing happens, (computer starts normally); there 
is no splash (not even text/default), and no new error messages related to 
plymouth, at least that I've found


Thanks for the reply,
