I answered this in another thread not so long ago: 1. As far as bootlogd is concerned, do the following: # apt-get install bootlogd # vi /etc/default/bootlogd , and make sure the only line in there looks like: BOOTLOGD_ENABLE=Yes As for syslog this is automatically started up. If you find you're missing symlinks to the scripts the you can do one of two things: 1. man update-rc.d 2. dpkg-reconfigure <package> (You might also find the package 'rcconf' useful for such tasks).
