Anyone can figure this out, but here's my /etc/syslog.conf:
# /etc/syslog.conf
# For info about the format of this file, see "man syslog.conf" (the BSD man
# page), and /usr/doc/sysklogd/README.linux.
#
# NOTE: YOU HAVE TO USE TABS HERE - NOT SPACES.
# I don't know why.
#
#####file logs
*.=info;*.=notice /usr/adm/messages
*.=debug /usr/adm/debug
*.warn /usr/adm/syslog
#####tty logs
*.=debug;mail.none /dev/tty15
*.warn;auth.*;mail.none /dev/tty14
mail.* /dev/tty13
*.* /dev/tty16
#
# This might work instead to log on a remote host:
# * @hostname
#end of syslog.conf
And I also change the text color of these VCs during startup, just so
I know that they're something different, but that's just me being
silly.
Anyway, enjoy, happy kernel hacking...
