Thinking of which: Do you have an idea of how to redirect the main
console output to /dev/tty0?  I have a startup script that starts up the
console automatically for me (quirky on oskit-mach, but when my
houseguests leave, I'll hack on it more), and I sometimes wish I could
see the console output after it starts.

Tks,
