Raspberry Pi – Awesome custom MOTD

Sun, 07 Jun 2020 11:17:14 +0530

Even though the Raspberry Pi comes with an HDMI port, most projects are headless (runs without a display), which suggests you’re mostly using SSH to access the system. I’m bored of seeing the most basic login banner with no information. This login banner is your MOTD (Message of the day, Linux term). My goal here was to have something that could quickly inform me about the machine’s information I was using and knowledge of the current state. It should also be as brief as it is practical, and importantly be fast to execute.
