[SOLVED] LVM Encryption Splash Login?

Has anyone tried setting up a splash screen login option with BL LVM Encryption. Back when I used kubuntu I liked the ability to have a normal looking login page when I was unlocking the disk.

I think you need Plymouth for that. Setting it up might not be simple:

Thanks John, I will test this tonight. You can go ahead and close this if you want.

You can go ahead and close this if you want.

If you would be so kind as to return and prepend the title of the thread with [SOLVED], if the solution actually works.

A brief précis of your eventual method would probably be very useful for any other people who may have the same problem in the future.
