You don't need gpm for that. SHIFT-PgUp and SHIFT-PgDn can do that
too. ;-)
And the following excerpt from /etc/conf.d/rc might help in debugging
boot problems:
=======================
# RC_BOOTLOG will generate a log of the boot messages shown on the
# console. Useful for headless machines or debugging. You need to
# emerge the app-admin/showconsole package for this to work. Note that
# this probably won't work correctly with boot splash.
RC_BOOTLOG="no"
=======================
Cheers,
Renat
