<para>When run-levels are changed (for example, when halting the
system), <command>init</command> sends termination signals to those
processes that <command>init</command> itself started and that should
not be running in the new run-level.  While doing this,
<command>init</command> outputs messages like <quote>Sending processes
the TERM signal</quote> which seem to imply that it is sending these
signals to all currently running processes. To avoid this
misinterpretation, modify the source so that these messages read like
<quote>Sending processes started by init the TERM signal</quote>
instead:</para>

<screen><userinput>sed -i 's@Sending processes@&amp; started by init@g' \

<para>The <parameter>-I '\033(K'</parameter> option tells
<command>agetty</command> to send this escape sequence to the terminal
before doing anything else. This escape sequence switches the console
character set to a user-defined one, which can be modified by running
the <command>setfont</command> program. The <command>console</command>
initscript from the LFS-Bootscripts package calls the <command>setfont</command>
program during system startup. Sending this escape sequence is
necessary for people who use non-ISO 8859-1 screen fonts, but it does
not affect native English speakers.</para>
