Oooh, thanks for that! Didn't know it was optional--not annoyed enough
to go hunting for it. I'm going to put it on tty1. I want to see the
last of the boot messages!
So this is probably a dumb question (never having built LFS), but don't
the boot messages get logged somewhere? Maybe you want it before Sysklogd
has been installed, or you don't want to have to go look at a logfile?
Not meaning to be critical, just a question out of curiosity.
The boot messages get logged to /run before the (potentially separate)
/usr is mounted. At the end of the boot sequence it is appended to
/var/log/boot.log.
