thanks for the info! its only for that one server.. the other servers i dont 
mind seeing the txt on, and probably after exploring will find some enhanced 
tty things, its just that with thatr amount of servers on one machine, it 
scrolls the last page of boot before we can watch the final host init, plus 
everything on that server console is logged while the others only have dmesg 
to worry about... maybe im just barking up a wrong tree.. i wont know for 
sure until i convert all the guests over on the production machine after my 
experiments and tests with my testbed is over (including upgrading an older 
version of the o/s in a guest)
