Custom Terminal name

Support
1

Hello,

We have custom XC7020 board, we want to change hostname to some custom name, when we turn on the board we see following name in the terminal:

xilinx@pynq

Welcome to Xilinx Linux

and password is also xilinx

how do we change to custom names? For example:

abc@xyz

Welcome to abc Linux

password to abc

Regards,

Amit

Hi,

I believe you need to recompile PYNQ with Petalinux to get what you wanted.

I was checking online, I found the command: sudo pynq_hostname.sh <your_new_hostname> to change host name and then reboot the board. Similarly is there any script to change welcome message: Xilinx Linux?

Hi

That is a great find, I didn’t know about that.

I feet your other issue is also on the operating systems side. Maybe search for start up messages or something.
