Bug Description
So i followed most of the stuff i read on the forums and finally had to post this.
I figured the Links were broken so we have to install a version of the kernel similar or the same as the one we are shown in cubic. which in my case was 5.4.0-91.
so here is how i proceeded :
1. loaded a .iso file. apt update.
2. apt install linux-headers-
3.cd /usr/share/
4. paste my plymouth theme in this folder which is just a plain image and it works since i did the change on a regular install of xubuntu i use now.
5.update-
#( i also tried 100, 150, 160)
update-alternatives --config default.plymouth
chose the plymouth theme i wanted.
6. update-initramfs -u -k all
i then went and chose the kernel which DID NOT SAY this will be used for bootstrapping. I chose the second one i installed.
after making the iso it gives me a bug everytime, it just goes to the Xubuntu Text logo.
so i did :
apt remove plymouth-
apt remove plymouth-
it then goes to the ubuntu text logo.
so i tried a apt remove plymouth-
and i also did apt autoremove. (PS i also tried without auto remove.)
Same error.
it would not load my plymouth theme.
and in the case i removed all themes except mine. it would flat out fail the install process itself. it would take me to a login screen.
it would display a bunch of errors instead of the plymouth theme. and finally dump me when i tried to install.
i'm kinda outta options so posting this as a last resort after exhausting all my options. Do try to help if possible. Thanks.

Ajay,
There's two boot themes...
# 1) Shown during live ISO boot.
# 2) Shown during boot of your installed system.
I assume you are trying to get # 2 to work?
