You could try grep'ing for the Linux version string, always one of the first several lines printed during kernel startup. Try searching for something such as "[ 0.000000] Linux version". Alternatively, you could search for your logger's "start" message. On my Fedora 15 install, the first messages on each boot are: imklog 5.7.9, log source = /proc/kmsg started. rsyslogd: [origin software="rsyslogd" swVersion="5.7.9" x-pid="872" x-info="http://www.rsyslog.com";] start Hope that helps. -- Peter Gordon (codergeek42) <pe...@thecodergeek.com> Who am I? :: http://thecodergeek.com/about-me
