I have a variation of it that prints a random Lao Tzu quote at the bottom, but I haven't figured out how to make it random using /bin/sh, while using my preferred /bin/bash (of course not installed by default) has problems displaying the logo. When used with Qi, this logo may be the only thing displayed until X starts, and it will reappear briefly when suspending/resuming/rebooting, which I like. Just drop it in /etc/init.d (there might be a "please wait, booting" version of banner there already) and "ln -s /etc/init.d/banner /etc/rcS.d/S03banner" if no previous banner existed. j
