is there a way to display text when the login prompt shows? For
instance, on my machine the hostname is chaos. When I boot, it says:
Debian GNU Linux 1.3 chaos tty1
chaos login:
How can I change it to say, for example, Welcome to Chaos.net!?
Also... How can you change what it says after you log
Look at the following files:
/etc/issue
/etc/issue.net
/etc/motd
There is manpage for issue and motd to help you out if you need it.

And also edit /etc/init.d/boot:
# Set EDITMOTD to no if you don't want /etc/motd to be editted
