Ah ha, I can reproduce the messages via /etc/init.d/udev restart and indeed they also end up in the /var/log/ files. (They are complaining about some things in /etc/udev/rules.d/*, but that is besides the point (that they don't get logged at boot.)) So then I rebooted (regular boot, /proc/cmdline: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-trunk-686 root=/dev/sda1 ro quiet panic=15) There those udev warnings go zipping by. And now that everything is up and running in multi-user mode, I check the logs, and ah ha, the only warnings that were logged are the ones from when I did /etc/init.d/udev restart. There are none corresponding to the time right after reboot. Nor say several hours off due to timezone settings or anything. (I don't believe "quiet" above means less will go to the logs than goes to the screen.) 10:49 log# find -mtime -1 -type f|xargs egrep -h SYSFS\|reboot|colrm 77|sort -u Dec 21 10:43:10 jidanni3 udevd[15039]: SYSFS{}= will be removed in a future Dec 21 10:45:14 jidanni3 shutdown[15063]: shutting down for system reboot Dec 21 10:45:58 jidanni3 /usr/sbin/cron[1178]: (CRON) INFO (Running @reboot Maybe some logging is being done, but it is at that time ending up on a tmpfs that one sees in /etc/init.d/udev, that gets mounted over with something else, but that is over my head. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
