terminal prompt

How do I personalize the terminal prompt, I have change the usual places in etc/HOSTNAME and profile and razor but still get porteus as the general ID of the system.
~/.bashrc ?How do I personalize the terminal prompt
You should reboot Porteus (or any other Linux distros) after modifying the hostname.I have change the usual places in etc/HOSTNAME
if 002-xorg.xzm is active then NetworkManager manages hostname, ip, dns, etc...no matter what you have in HOSTNAME porteus always comes out.
this is hardcoded in linuxrc (inside initrd). there are many places where porteus name is present (scripts, config files, even artwork) so rebranding is tough but still possible. please dont ask me about these cause i dont even remember all of them.also just before the "issue" file is displayed it says it is logging in to porteus
