Hi all, I just installed a fresh 10.1-release and noted that the "Booting..." message is now on a blue background. Apparently this has been reported as a bug: https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=182145 I was instead wondering if FreeBSD has applied the same schema used by OpenBSD: the kernel messages have a different background. This helps a lot understanding what is going on in the console, and is in my opinion, a better way than using a bold white for the kernel messages. Now the question is: is there a configuration tunable for turning on blue all the kernel messages as the initial booting message? I mean something simpler than having to tune options and recompile the kernel (https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/boot-and-kernel-message-background-and-color.33196/). Thanks, Luca
