notadm

2019-10-25

Notadm (not a display manager) are a few scripts that overwrite agetty's /etc/issue during system start.
Allows you to add whatever you'd want above your tty login prompt.
see: https://www.reddit.com/r/archlinux/comments/dkqpd6/overwriting_etcissue_during_boot_with_script/

The Arch example uses archey3 + the info below it, dynamically creating /etc/issue during each boot.

The OpenSuse example was created with static edits to /etc/issue.

To use notadm:
Install supplied archey3 package or modify scripts to work with 'fetch' program of choice.
Place archey3-issue.service in /etc/systemd/system/
Edit and place arch3y anywhere in $PATH.
Place .archey3.cfg in /root/
Enable archey3-issue.service, with: sudo systemctl enable archey3-issue.service .
