[Bug 1525699] Re: Error message "/sbin/plymouthd: not found" is shown on booting

[BlackDragon]

Ubuntu 16 changes the location of plymouth themes from
/lib/plymouth/themes to /usr/share/plymouth/themes and so all of the
theme install scripts that assumed the previous layout now install to
the wrong location.

Hope this time it work! here are the steps  :

apt-get install plymouth-themes

ls -ltrd /lib/plymouth/themes
ls -ltrd /usr/share/plymouth/themes


move all themes directories to /usr/share/plymouth/themes:


cd /lib/plymouth/themes


Replace <theThemeDirectory> with the name of your theme directory:


mv <theThemeDirectory> /usr/share/plymouth/themes

within your themes directories  ,there are always 2 files in it   yourthemename-logo.script   yourthemename.plymouth  those files contain   the old directory  /lib/plymouth/
 replace the path /lib/    with  the new path  /usr/share/  thats all  .
