for reference to others though the way to change the login prompt for mgetty is either by putting "login-prompt <login prompt>" into the /etc/mgetty+sendfax/mgetty.config file or by passing it the -p <loginprompt> option through the command line. The default prompt: <machine name login:> is precompiled into the kernel.

I think this was in reference to dialup though. /etc/inittab uses agetty.
