    I played with these splash screens 15 years ago but found it a big
effort for pure futility. These splash screens aren't by default on
Debian nor Grub and I've never seen them for long. Do you mean the
graphics drivers are in initrd even if you don't require a splash screen
? Even for a minimal non-graphical system?
