I believe this is the correct approach to get usplash started on
systems without gdm and kdm installed. Here is a patch to make sure
usplash is started during shutdown when the init.d script is executed.
With dependency based boot sequencing usplash is started very early in
the shutdown sequence, and this is sufficient to solve the issue.
This patch uses the new splash API presented to sysvinit, and rewrites
how the kernel arguments are parsed to make sure it is handled the
same way as in sendsigs.
