Don't know if it works for the console login but I suspect it does.
If this doesn't work then I know there is some way to do it. We can
find it for you. I'll ask the Gentoo folks.

Hello!
I'm sorry, I know I have been a bit off-topicy recently. I promise to get
better. But there is one question left:
Is there a way - short of hacking login.c from the shadow package - to
change the login prompt, which usually says:
hostname login:
? I tried and tried, read a lot of stuff, but mostly about the shell prompt
or the graphical login managers. Any idea about the console? I found francine
from the fancy login project, but even it only offered "login:" and
"password:" at certain positions on the screen.
I eventually ended up building login from source and changing the
loginprompt, but couldn't get to the "Password:" prompt. I know it's aa
bit
silly, but I simply can't believe, that with so much configurability you can't
change this!
Kindest regards
