I apologize if this question has been asked before, but it appears that Lilo clears the screen at its prompt. I want it not to clear the screen so that when I get to Linux's login prompt, I can push shift-page-up to go back and see some of the stuff the CMOS puts on the screen before a system actually boots. Is there a command or something that I can put in lilo.conf to keep it from clearing the screen? Thanks in advance for any and all help.
