hi,

i have an axppci133, running NetBSD/alpha (well, sure!) 1.6

when booting, system shows "enter path for shell or ENTER for /bin/sh". 
why? in /etc/rc.conf, I have rc_configured=YES.

when using /bin/sh (the default), i immediately log out with "exit", 
then the system bootup finished and i can login normal (with bash of 
course).

never had this on i386...

and another one (perhaps interesting also for other ports):
the system uses a blue background. i want black background. i know i can 
set this with an ANSI sequence (so i got lightgreen text on i386 once).

but is there an easier way to do this?

Thanks for any suggestions
Florian
