Yup. If you still miss them, you quickly remember to use 'K S' next time to 
stop scrolling. But this is not a big concern for me.

True. Sometimes you can see missed messages in the console on the HCD, that is 
if you varied it in time online of course.

As part of our IPL procedures, some important settings are always listed just 
after JES2 come up, but before applications come up. So, if we however missed 
important messages, those setting shown can indicate if we had to re-IPL or 
just go ahead.

Each to its own...
