It isn't the answer to your question, but: 1. Try do use a subject that is in relationship to your question. 2. Try to wrap your lines at approx. column 70, this makes correct quoting easier. I was free to correct them both. :-) Now regarding your question: It is possible to change the color attributes for the kernel messages which FreeBSD usually displays white on black, and OpenBSD grey on blue. As far as I remember - I tried it once -, there are makeoptions in the kernel configuration file to be set. See the handbook section about how to build a custom kernel for the correct procedures. The correct settings are mentioned in /usr/src/sys/conf/NOTES, lines 1339 cont. (1343 cont): # The following options will let you change the default colors of syscons. options SC_NORM_ATTR=(FG_GREEN|BG_BLACK) options SC_NORM_REV_ATTR=(FG_YELLOW|BG_GREEN) options SC_KERNEL_CONS_ATTR=(FG_RED|BG_BLACK) options SC_KERNEL_CONS_REV_ATTR=(FG_BLACK|BG_RED) But I'm not sure you can change the settings for the boot manager itself in an easy way. Maybe a modification of the boot loader's source code makes it possible... -- Polytropon >From Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
