## Plymouth boot splash theme

The Windows95 boot theme is based on the template provided by [http://brej.org/blog/?p=174](https://web.archive.org/web/20180210003217/https://brej.org/blog/?p=174)

It is meant to simulate the Windows 95 boot screen and shutdown screen.

The RetroTux boot theme is based on the xubuntu-logo Plymouth theme.
