change font color...no NOT in X
i wanted to change the font color of the text i see before X is started. I dont know if im wording this right. but the text i want to change is the text here:
Linux 2.4.20 centro login: ive talked with many and they say to edit .bashrc file. .bashrc doesnt exist. I have edited my prompt by editing the /etc/profile. i guess my question is. how do i change the font color before i startx??? |

You can also stick something like "setterm -foreground green -store" (no quotes!) in /etc/rc.d/rc.local which will change the font color to green. You can have a different background color and some other goodies described in man setterm.

It's hard. You need to pass the setterm line before everything else, but that is impossible since no drives are mounted yet, CPU is just being detected and initialized, etc.. The only thing that comes to mind is to read LILO docs, maybe they have a way of doing this. Or dig through /etc/rc.d/rc.S which is the first startup script, maybe you find something there..
