FWIW I have also noticed on my machine that somewhere in the middle of
the OpenRC boot process, the screen gets cleared. Haven't completely
tracked it down yet.

You can enable logging in your rc.conf to log all of the openrc
output, that might help you see what was on-screen before it got
cleared away. You also might be able to enable interactive mode and go
through it step-by-step to see what's happening in real-time at your
own pace.
