28.1.14. `/etc/sysconfig/init`

The /etc/sysconfig/init file controls how the system appears and functions during the boot process.

The following values may be used:

BOOTUP=<value>, where <value> is one of the following:
- color — The standard color boot display, where the success or failure of devices and services starting up is shown in different colors.
- verbose — An old style display which provides more information than purely a message of success or failure.
- Anything else means a new display, but without ANSI-formatting.
RES_COL=<value>, where <value> is the number of the column of the screen to start status labels. The default is set to 60.
MOVE_TO_COL=<value>, where <value> moves the cursor to the value in the RES_COL line via the echo -en command.
SETCOLOR_SUCCESS=<value>, where <value> sets the success color via the echo -en command. The default color is set to green.
SETCOLOR_FAILURE=<value>, where <value> sets the failure color via the echo -en command. The default color is set to red.
SETCOLOR_WARNING=<value>, where <value> sets the warning color via the echo -en command. The default color is set to yellow.
SETCOLOR_NORMAL=<value>, where <value> resets the color to "normal" via the echo -en.
LOGLEVEL=<value>, where <value> sets the initial console logging level for the kernel. The default is 3; 8 means everything (including debugging), while 1 means only kernel panics. The syslogd daemon overrides this setting once started.
PROMPT=<value>, where <value> is one of the following boolean values:
- yes — Enables the key check for interactive mode.
- no — Disables the key check for interactive mode.
