It most certainly is true.  Without plymouth, mountall can't ever prompt
you for input when the filesystem fails to mount cleanly!  How did you
go about removing plymouth?  Your bug report shows that at least parts
of it are certainly installed on the system from which you filed this
report.

Your report includes the following information:

> [ 1807.335818] init: Failed to spawn setvtrgb main process: unable to
execute: No such file or directory

setvtrgb is part of the kbd package, which is a dependency of the core
ubuntu system.  Is your system in a consistent state?  It sounds like
either the system is not completely updated to 11.10, or critical
packages are missing.

Your bug report also shows that you've modified /etc/default/grub:

> # Uncomment to disable graphical terminal (grub-pc only)
> GRUB_TERMINAL=console

Did you make this change as part of debugging the plymouth problem, or
was this an existing change?  If you use the default graphical terminal,
does that make a difference in the behavior of plymouth?

This output also suggests a possible problem:

> ProcFB:
>  0 radeondrmfb
>  1 VESA VGA

Your lspci output shows you have only one video card, but there are two
framebuffer modules loaded.  It's possible the kernel modules are
colliding and causing a console hang, which happens to be cleared by
killing plymouthd.

Finally, if you boot with the 'splash' option added to the commandline,
does the system boot successfully?

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