One caveat; I've been told that version initscripts is slightly broken, and causes issues on systems with a separate /usr partition. I don't have such a thing, and it works perfectly for me on my 9 system (it's a MythTV box, so I thought I'd try it out in place of the text rolling across the TV).
Yes; rhgb starts X early and uses that, but X requires /usr and I for one have that on a sep. part that's not present when rhgb tries to init. I tried mounting /usr explicitely early, but X took as long to start up on my box as most of the rest of the boot process, so I didn't pursue it any more.
I've not had much joy yet with the bootsplash kernel patch, so I may end up using a framebuffer GTK app.
