Bug Description
On several flavors (I have confirmed Ubuntu Unity and Lubuntu thus far), if the machine does not have much resources, it falls back to the text-based Plymouth boot screen.
Steps to reproduce:
- Find a machine with 1 core and 2 GB of RAM, a virtual machine will do.
- Boot up a live ISO of Lubuntu or Ubuntu Unity.
Expected result: the appropriate graphical splash screen is shown.
Actual result: Only the text-based splash screen for Plymouth is shown.

summary: |
- Splash screen not rendering correctly on several flavors + Plymouth uses the text-based boot screen on some machines, sometimes |

I do *not* encounter this bug when booting with the following ubuntu-unity iso: dccb7f007a9d750 1f8fe23e171dda2 638696250fcf355 9295 *noble- desktop- amd64.iso
