+==================================================================================
+1. To make Plymouth work:
+     1.1. Add "plymouth" to HOOKS after "base" and "udev" in /etc/mkinitcpio.conf
+     1.2. Add 'quiet splash' to the grub command line
+     1.3. Rebuild your initrd image (# mkinitcpio -p [kernel preset name]).
+          E.g.: sudo mkinitcpio -p linux
+
+2. To enable encryption, replace "encrypt" with "plymouth-encrypt" in
+   mkinitcpio.conf and rebuild your initrd image.
+
+3. You will also need to rebuild your initrd image every time you change your theme
+   (the default is set as 'spinfinity').
+
+   To list all plymouth themes:
+       plymouth-set-default-theme -l
+
+   To change theme:
+       # plymouth-set-default-theme <theme>
+
+   To rebuild initrd image:
+       # mkinitcpio -p linux
+
+4. For Smooth Transition to Display Manager you have to:
+     4.1. See the Wiki Page (link in 5) to prepare your Display Manager
+     4.2. Disable your Display Manager Unit 
+          E.g. : systemctl disable kdm.service
+     4.3. Enable the respective DM-plymouth Unit (GDM,KDM,Lightdm,LXDM units provided)
+          E.g. : systemctl enable kdm-plymouth.service
+
+5. For more information please visit the Wiki page:
+   https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Plymouth
+
+OBS. If you have any leftover "kill Plymouth" lines in /etc/rc.local or ~/.xinitrc
+     they are no longer required.
