i have tested this. but my instructions might have been faulty.
i normally run this command on any terminal
i log into (including the redundant set of scrolling :-( ):
window -m -hide -scroll rc -c 'echo scroll>/dev/wctl; label kmesg; tail
-f /dev/kprint&'
if you have to type in the face of interrupts, you might need to cut that down
to just
the "tail -f /dev/kprint"

yes.
