Open up `/boot/menu.rc' and look for the following lines (LINE 9-10): \ Customizations set logo=3D"orb" Feel free to play with any of the following drop-in replacements: set logo=3D"beastie" set logo=3D"beastiebw" set logo=3D"fbsdbw" set logo=3D"orb" set logo=3D"orbbw" Simply deleting the line or comment it out (by adding "\ " -- backslash-spa= ce -- to the beginning of the line) is equivalent to setting logo to "beast= ie". Here's a short explanation of each value: NAME DESCRIPTION beastie Color ``Helper Daemon'' mascot (19 rows x 34 columns) beastiebw B/W ``Helper Daemon'' mascot (19 rows x 34 columns) fbsdbw "FreeBSD" logo in B/W (13 rows x 21 columns) orb Color ``Orb'' mascot (15 rows x 30 columns) orbbw B/W ``Orb'' mascot (15 rows x 30 columns) I'm not sure what you meant by "Beastie ASCII" image, but I think you're ei= ther looking for "beastie" or "fbsdbw". You should have to, but if you need to, you can add: set logoX=3DX set logoY=3DY to force the row/column placement of beastie. --=20 Devin >=20 > -- > Freddie Cash > fjwcash@gmail.com _____________ The information contained in this message is proprietary and/or confidentia= l.
