Fedora grub2 does not display background
 
Hi guys

Believe me, I was searching how to do this, and I guess, I did everything correct but still can not get background displayed during boot

this is my file
Code:

/etc/sysconfig/grub
Code:

GRUB_TIMEOUT=5
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR="$(sed 's, release .*$,,g' /etc/system-release)"
GRUB_DEFAULT=saved
GRUB_DISABLE_SUBMENU=true
#GRUB_TERMINAL_OUTPUT="console"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="rd.luks.uuid=luks-92ac2d42-ac4b-4dfa-a834-7189d3c7d749 rhgb quiet rd.driver.blacklist=nouveau"
GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY="true"
GRUB_ENABLE_BLSCFG=true
#GRUB_GFXMODE="1920x1200,1024x768,auto"
GRUB_GFXMODE="1024x768"
GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=keep
GRUB_BACKGROUND="/boot/grub2/themes/system/fireworks.png"

after that I've rebuilded grub config.

Code:

[root@dell karcio]# grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/efi/EFI/fedora/grub.cfg
Generating grub configuration file ...
Found background: /boot/grub2/themes/system/fireworks.png
Found Windows Boot Manager on /dev/nvme0n1p1@/EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi
Adding boot menu entry for EFI firmware configuration
done

but still no luck

Many mainstream distros use plymouth to display boot splash. It adds support for things you don't get with grub, like the animated spinner you see when you boot a default Fedora 33. Perhaps look into getting plymouth out of your way or look see if you can apply your background through plymouth.
