When booting gets to the end, just before issuing "login", the screen is cleared. I'd like to prevent this so I can read the boot messages. I'm running a stock F7 system w/ updates. My GRUB boot stanza is adjusted to show boot messages directly on the VT (no spash screen). In the past I've added "-- noclear" to the tty lines in /etc/inittab like this: 1:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty1 -- noclear tty1 This doesn't seem to work anymore. How is this done in F7? Dean
