Could we not send all the text on screen with a command like ? >> all_screen_text.txt Now I am happy to test this out, but what is the '?' command, and what is the "Autoexec.bat" file equivalent in Linux, to insert the line. "Paul W. Abrahams" wrote:

I have a question. Is there a way to temporarily stop the boot up process so that you can read/study the messages? I've looked at dmesg, but not all of the messages are in there. like the error messages

show up. Weird! or, where are the error messages written?
Thanks, Jerry VB did u chk /var/log/boot.msg
I believe dmesg simply gives the contents of /var/log/boot.msg, which records only those actions taken by the kernel itself during bootup. The question no one seems to have a good answer for is how to see the messages resulting from the scripts in /sbin/init.d, e.g., the ones that mount the filesystems. Shift-PgUp shows some of them, but not always all of them.
