I have installed NetBSD 1.5 on a sparc IPC. I am running it from a
terminal on the serial port.
NetBSD prompts the user to login as follows:
| NetBSD/sparc (komodo-dragon) (console)
|
| login:
How can I change the message line? I would like to add the VT100
ansi control code Esc [ 2 J ("/022[2J") to clear the screen so
that the end of the previous user's session is not left on the
terminal and the welcome message appears at the top of a blank
screen. I might also change the text of the welcome message at
the same time.
Regards,
