Since what you want is only a few lines you can use the im= definition in /etc/gettytab, man gettytab for the info on how to do that. If you'd like to make an /etc/issue file like in linux, upgrade to -Stable as of May 3 or later and you will find support for that. > and also I would like to changed the password prompt > > it is like > > login: xxx > Password: > > I want it like, > > login: xxx > xxx's Password: > > how can I change it? > it was easy to change it in linux...
