I'm trying to watch dmesg output in (initramfs) but command output has more lines than a screen. So I see only the end of dmesg output. Busybox v1.21.1 has more command, but dmesg | more somehow doesn't work as expected (it shows complete output without possibility scroll).

Why it doesn't work and are there any other ways in initramfs to watch dmesg output?

I am using VMware, none of more or | options worked. But Shift+PgUp and Shift+PgDn is working in Windows.

Try dmesg | less instead. less is a more advanced cousin of more. It should give you the option to scroll.
