I have never actually done this, but as a tip for a starting point: Virtual console login is handled by getty via /bin/login getty invocation is configured in /etc/inittab from looking at the manpage of getty, you might be able to have it run /bin/bash instead of /bin/login This would be done by editing /etc/inittab to have a line like 1:2345:respawn:/sbin/getty -l /bin/bash -n 38400 tty1 instead of what you've already got on tty1 Please let me know if that works. -Mark -- Mark Roach
