(...) (see the responses in the other user's e-mails, you have to manually enable this) What I can't see is why this logging facility is not enabled by default. I also think it should be kept in a unique file, instead to be split in "/ var/log/dmesg" and "/var/log/boot", IMO it would be easier to read, interpret and debug...
