To the line for the terminal you don't want to be cleared. I only added |
| 28 |
it to tty1: |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
c1:12345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 tty1 linux --noclear |
| 31 |

Nothing you would put there would help. It's about preventing the |
| 36 |
clearing of the terminal. There's nothing you can do after it has been |
| 37 |
cleared. |
