Adding a disclaimer and skip the menu

[asimov-solensan]

Hello everybody, First of all I will introduce myself. I work on the networking/computing department of my faculty and we use here knoppix a lot as tool for networking exercises. We use a customized live CD, but it's quite old, 4.0. And well since I'm the "linux guy" here I have been told to update this CD. My intention is to use this guide: http://knoppix.net/wiki/Knoppix_Remastering_Howto And I do know how to do all I want with two exceptions. They are not mandatory but I would be a nice detail. The first one is to add a small disclaimer. Just ramarking that this is a version modified by the department "wahtever" at the faculty "whatever". Where and how do I put such a message, the idea is making it appear once while booting and that's it. The second one is to bypass the menu that boots at start. I really don't know where it comes from and I need my live CD to boot directly to the shell. And that's it, hope to get some help. Thanks a lot
