Package: systemd-sysv
Version: 208-6
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

in the following boot messages
(the kernel is started without "quiet" option):

...
[ 2.123456] systemd[1]: systemd 208 running in system mode. (+...)

Welcome to Debian GNU/Linux jessie/sid!

[ 2.345678] systemd[1]: Inserted module 'autofs4'
...

the followin text: "Debian GNU/Linux jessie/sid"
is printed in red color.

IMHO, the red color should be avoided there
(the messaged are scrolling fast, and the red text can be mistaken
for an error);
maybe, yellow, green or blue color can better.
