Hey cool. It worked.  Thanks Mark.
I replaced the other 1: line with this line below.

But it doesn't have the little line in the console that makes us feel
all warm and fuzzy that the service finished booting correctly:
That is "Welcome to SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 9 (s390x) -  Kernel
2.6.5- 7.283- s390x"

Any idea how I can keep that there?


You can create /root/.bashrc and put this in it:
#!/bin/sh
echo "Welcome to `head -n1 /etc/SuSE-release` - Kernel `uname -r`"


YOU TOO CAN HELP STAMP OUT BACKTICKS IN OUR LIFETIME.

Seriously, folks.  It's Linux, not Solaris: /bin/sh is POSIX-
compliant (boy, was I surprised last week when some of my POSIX
scripts barfed-and-died on.

So:

#!/bin/sh

I'd not have that line in ~/.bashrc or ~/.bash_profile or ~/.profile

it's not exactly a script.
