Changing the startup message

[iceman2343]

Is there anyway to change the message at startup that says

"The system is up and running now.

Login as "root", with password "toor", both without quotes, lowercase."

and so on... I have it installed on my hard disk and woudl like to change the message.

I highly recommend using the forum search feature...this exact question has been answered at least 2 or 3 times within the past month.
