There has been some recent change somewhere in the startup process that makes startup messages disappear once the process is completed and the login prompt appears. I had (and have) in /etc/initttab:
c1:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty -i -8 38400 tty1 linux I added the "-i" to prevent clearing the terminal, and it worked. Not any more. Not even with Shift+PageUp. Anyone knows what changed? TIA Jorge Almeida
