[Bug 1664066] [NEW] view boot messages

[Wolf]

Public bug reported:

Boot messages can be really live-saving.
You can find lots of threads and discussions on the question "how can I make boot messages readable" - there are quite some ideas how to edit grub config files to achieve that, some may work, many do not.

I think, it's a very basic requirement that a good OS can display boot
messages, so I can easily see what's going wrong in the case something
goes wrong. Some people may like the splash screen eye candy - well,
granted.

But in any case, there must be a trick to make the boot messages console
visible with one single keystroke. In any variant and flavour. Always.
Ever. And reliable.
