Hi Tim,

When you say plymouth shows a splash screen, what exactly do you see?
plymouth will *run* unconditionally on boot, because it's needed to
broker boot-time console I/O; but on a server there should be no
graphical boot splash support *installed* by default, and booting
without 'splash' on the commandline should cause no splash screen to be
displayed - only the details plugin (plaintext output).

The initramfs-tools script should also not be used by default; there are
only a limited number of cases in which this script will be installed in
the initramfs at all (see the initramfs hook script for details).

Finally, the problematic script you mention, /etc/rcS.d/S05keymap.sh, is
not part of the standard 10.04 LTS install.  This seems to be provided
by a 'console-common' package in universe.  Do you know why you have
that package installed - pulled in as a dependency, carried over as part
of an upgrade from a previous release?

** Changed in: plymouth (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Incomplete
