Hi Andreas,
In general, you should not add your changes to poky directly, or any of the 
other provided layers.
In this case the 'permanent' way to do this is to produce your own distribution 
layer but the quick alternative is to set the variable in conf/local.conf.
Regards,Chris

Subject: Re: [yocto] Customize login prompt text in Yocto

Hello, What is the correct way to override poky.conf? I tried adding a new file 
custom-poky.conf into meta-yocto/conf/distro, including the poky.conf file and 
overriding e.g., DISTRO_VERSION. Is this the correct approach, or is some other 
changes required as well? Best regards,Andreas Enbacka From: Rudolf Streif

Subject: Re: [yocto] Customize login prompt text in Yocto the information shown 
is from the file /etc/issue. You can for example do post-processing on this 
file and change the information. You can add this to your image recipe.

update_issue() {
    echo "Your text" > ${IMAGE_ROOTFS}/etc/issue
}

ROOTFS_POSTPROCESS_COMMAND += " update issue; "  The more "yoctonic" way of 
setting this is to modify the DISTRO_NAME variable, which is set in the distro 
configuration file e.g. poky.conf. If you are building your own distro it you 
may want to derive your own distro configuration file from the ones that Poky 
provides. There you can also set other variables such as DISTRO_VERSION, 
MAINTAINER, etc. Cheers,Rudi
