You could increase your scrollback buffer:

http://www.mjmwired.net/kernel/Documentation/fb/fbcon.txt

Then you can use the keyboard presses and view contents in the buffer.

Or you can build an editor and install it into /tools and then  
redirect the output to a file and use the editor to view it.

Or you could extract util-linux and build more and install it into / 
tools
Or you could extract less and build less and install it into /tools

Sincerely,

William Harrington
