On our system where we have text-based menus on the first console, but
where kernel messages may often be informative, I redirect them to a
different virtual console with setlogcons:
setlogcons 10 # redirect messages to /dev/tty10
If you ever need to restore:
setlogcons '' # redirect console messages to /dev/tty (the default)
I do that in a init script script rather late in the boot process.
