Did you comment out all 5 lines? # echo "" > /etc/issue # echo "$R" >> /etc/issue # echo "Kernel $(uname -r) on $a $SMP$(uname -m)" >> /etc/issue
# cp -f /etc/issue /etc/issue.net # echo >> /etc/issue The third line is the line which adds the linux 2.4.9-31...the hostname probably just gets popped in there. The 4th line, of course, is what copies /etc/issue to /etc/issue.net. You might need to check other init scripts to make sure that nothing else is touching the issue and issue.net files. Other than that, I'm afrid I can't be of much more help, probably. On Mon, 24 Jun 2002, Paul Bradshaw wrote: > > That doesn't do it.
