There are at least 8 virtual terminals by default on FreeBSD, but I seldom (to be exact, never) use all of them, mostly the first 3-4. The kernel messages and another ones (such programs as su(1) also print there time to time) are shown on the first vty. So I often get crazy mixture of this stuff, it covers my Midnight Commander's panels till I refresh them. I wonder if there's a method to show kernel messages on, say, 6th console, logs on 7th etc? Such behaviour is well-known feature of many Linux distros and I remember smth similar when installing FreeBSD, when messages of packages are shown on 4th vty.

Thanks.
