For this sort of stuff, create a file /etc/rc.boot/local and throw
whatever you want in there. It will get run as part of the bootup
process, will get run only once, and won't get overwritten when you
upgrade your box.
In ours I set the keyboard speed and rewrite /etc/issue to put the
current kernel version in the login prompt.
