While booting, if you hit them and it's not *too* soon in the boot
process, screen will be running, and you can get another console window.
There's eight, I think, available, and three and four show diffent logging
info - I think one gets copied to boot.log, or dmesg, and the other to
/var/log/message. At any rate, they're written to the screen.
