Sending Errors to A Specific Console?

Hi All: This is first of 2 complicated questions? The other evening I had a
hard-drive failure--and 9 lines of errors were blasting out, but even worse
each time I would change consoles, the same errors showed up again. So my idea
would be if first I could select a console such as tty22 where all error
messages would go. Then for those who figure its important to know of and
examine them, maybe the PC speaker could ring 2 rapid bells. At least that
wouldn't messup my screen while I am reading in Pine. When looking up this
concept, it seemed like a program "klogd" might do this, but in asking at our
LUG last evening, maybe not.
Even when I plugin or disconnect a USB device, the message comes on my current
console.
O, I am running Debian Testing 2.6.32
Thanks in advance for any solutions
Hart
