Try it with: --noclear I decided to try it now, changing the first line to be like the following example stopped it clearing, but I can't scroll back if I let it boot up graphically and it switches screens over. If I boot up in run level three it'll stay on that screen, and I can scroll back. 1:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty1 --noclear I did that just to the first mingetty line, that's the console that shows the boot messages. -- [tim@bigblack ~]$ uname -ipr 2.6.22.9-91.fc7 i686 i386 Using FC 4, 5, 6 & 7, plus CentOS 5.
