Hey all,
I was curious on how I could change the '[ok]' box colors. Or more specifically how I can change the color of the console fonts on boot. In freebsd this can be accomplished with putting

'options SC_NORM_ATTR=(FG_WHITE|BG_BLACK)'

In the kernel config file.

I'm using the vesa framebuffer.

The colors for the "OK" during boot are defined in the start-up scripts. I'm not at my Gentoo machine right now so I can't find the exact script. If you are inspired you can look for it yourself using this document as a reference.

As for your other question...
I'm not sure I know the best way to change the default color of your console font. I have never tried this. Maybe someone else out there has and can point you in the right direction.
