Shift-PgUp should scroll the screen up provided you haven't switched
consoles. Or you could define a portage log directory in your make.conf,
remembering to create it of course, then ls -lrt will show you the most
recent file and you can read there what happened.
My make.conf includes: PORT_LOGDIR=/var/log/portage.
