When working in runlevel 2, as with my Etch netinst, I'm unable to scroll
back. for example I run lsmod, but only see what's on the screen, which is
the tail end of lsmod.

Now there must be some sort of basic window drawing ability, because nano
works ok. Is there some similar app that I can start in runlevel 2 that I can
use like a CLI, Konsole, for example, that I normally use when I have access
to KDE's Desktop?

I'm installing KDE, and the X window system at the moment, and usually with
big installs, updates, etc, I save the Konsole history to my /home/user
directory, suitably date stamped, and in my History-files dir. It's nice to
be able to save the history like this, as it's easy to look back to when the
system was last updated for example, and see just whick packages were
installed, and any other stuff that was printed out while doing the updates.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Nigel.
