Since usage of livecd/motd isn't valid for gentoo-release-* I have instead made it pretty simple. If you're using livecd/motd and gentoo-release-* you will get a warning, and your custom motd will be ignored. I really wish people would *not* use gentoo-release-* when building anything that tries to be different from a Gentoo release. ;] > ----- Original Message ---- > From: Andrew Gaffney <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: [email protected] > Sent: Wednesday, March 22, 2006 11:30:38 AM > Subject: Re: [gentoo-catalyst] custom motd gets blanked > > Tod Herman wrote: > > When building livecd with custom motd, the custom motd gets moved into the > > build environment correctly, but then get's blanked when the > > livecdfs-update.sh tries to cat missing generic-motd.txt and > > minimal-motd.txt files into /etc/motd.
