Hrm, I rebooted and added the phrase vga=normal and uncommented the

It's nice to know I wasn't the only one with that problem

My virtual consoles (ie F1-whatever) after a short period
will go screwy and show what looks like boot logs or
multi-color flashing garbage... I tried /c and even the reset
command to no avail... They are fine after a hardware reboot
but this is annoying... SSH works just fine, as does XFree86.

Yes. Sometimes subsquent kernel me
Type "dmesg" at the command prompt. Then use Shift-Page Up to scroll

Hello, I want to review the lines and lines of text
that printout during startup, but they quickly scroll
off the screen.
Are they logged in a file or files in /var/log or
somewhere else?

Try dmesg | less, or just look in /var/log. But some stuff never gets
written there and is inevitably lost. Search the list for the past
month or so; this has been mentioned a few times.
If you want to just look at the messages you can use the scrollback
buffer: have the system boot in runlevel

kernel boot messages from the last boot are stored in /var/log/dmesg
messages from daemons starting as far as I know are not logged.
Hi,
is there a log file where I can find all boot messages?
Or, if not, is there a possibility to make them written into a log file?

Hi,
Prior to the debian 2.0 installation I used to have a detail boot log
on /usr/adm/messages.
Where is it on the 2.0 version. the /var/log/messages is very abbreviated
the /var/log/syslog is also very abbreviated
