According to your User Agnet you are using Dapper.

If that´s right:
$EDITOR /etc/lsb-base-logging.sh
------------------------------------------------------------------
find the line (107) which contains:

echo "[ ok ]"

and change that to:

printf '[ '
$TPUT setaf 2  # green
printf ok
$TPUT op  # normal
echo ' ]'

------------------------------------------------------------------

That will give you a green ok inside of white bracktes during boot.
