How do I retrieve the messages that I see when booting?
dmesg does not have all the information.
I'm using kernel 2.6.13.2
Thanks
enable /etc/default/bootlogd:
$ cat /etc/default/bootlogd
# Run bootlogd at startup ?
BOOTLOGD_ENABLE=Yes
I did the above, rebooted and can't find thelog anywhere.
Could you tell me where it should be and what its name is?
look at 'man bootlogd' (hint: 'man -k boot' gives all man pages about 'boot')
hint 2: most logs are in /var/log
Here's what I tried - still need help
Thanks
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/dev$ /sbin/bootlogd -l /var/log/boot.
bootlogd: cannot find console device 136:1 in /dev
The above line points to not finding console, but one can see that it is
there from below
no idea why you're trying the above
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/dev$ ls c*
cdrom cdrw console core
cpu:
0 microcode
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/dev$ cat /etc/default/bootlogd
# Run bootlogd at startup ?
BOOTLOGD_ENABLE=Yes
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/dev$
but what does
ls -l /var/log/boot
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ls -l /var/log/boot
ls: /var/log/boot: No such file or directory
