+=====================
 
 To get early boot messages on a braille device (before userspace screen
 readers can start), you first need to compile the support for the usual serial

-Accessibility).

 By default, the braille device will just show the last kernel message (console
 mode).  To review previous messages, press the Insert key to switch to the VT
 review mode.  In review mode, the arrow keys permit to browse in the VT content,
