Speaking of which, does anybody know how to get those buffers to be more
persistent? I want to be able to switch to another console or to X and
then back and still be able to scroll through the buffers. Once logged in
one could take care of this via screen, but it'd specifically be
neato-keen to be able to scroll through the startup messages :). It'd also
be nice to be able to extend them, especially if that gets us firmware
stuff...
