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?

Hi Dean have you looked at dmesg? I do and it seems to have all that
you want to see and you can call it any time you desire.
