Could it be that all the boot ids are actually the same for some reason? I had this issue in a container when systemd was reading boot_id from `/proc/sys/kernel/random/boot_id` and since /proc was bind-mounted, boot_id always was host's boot_id.
You can also run `journalctl -F _BOOT_ID` to see a set of all the boot ids recorded in the journal (this must agree with `journalctl --list-boots`. You can also add ` -o verbose` to see all the fields of records. Since you say that the messages are actually stored in the journal, it might be interesting to check their _BOOT_ID fields. -- Кирилл Елагин On Mon, May 12, 2014 at 12:30 AM, Chris Murphy <[email protected]>wrote: > > > > It looks like --list-boots is broken.
