I thought i would report how i invested some time during my breaks in the day in trying to print neofetch output to boot tty.
I attempted modifying the rc.local file first- thanks to Eric for giving example of shebang.
# !/usr/bin/bash
neofetch | tee /dev/tty0 # #I also tried /dev/console& /dev/tty1
exit 0
The hilarious result was that it showed up on
%cat /run/66/log/0/current

I also tried making a 66 front-end service file in usr/lib/66/service -
[main]
@ type = oneshot
@ description = "system information tool"
@ user = ( root )
[start]
@ build = auto
@ shebang = "/usr/bin/bash"
@ execute=( neofetch | tee /dev/tty0 )
With the same result except the system boots all the other trees&their services just fine. Any suggestions on how to get it to show up before boot executes etc/issue?
Perhaps i can be satisfied with this result& run
cat /run/66/log/0/current
to check output of neofetch :)
