Just for info. I was able to make a swap using
dd if=/dev/zero of=/home/swapfile bs=1024 count=65536
Only 64M big, but OK for now. Now I need to find a way to get dmesg into a file, or the equivalent.
dmesg > <filename> dmesg > |tail -n 100 > <filename> ...
I was looking for a way to continually update the file, like the old /var/log/messages was. Sorry I was not clear.
look at man dmesg -w dmesg -T -w >> <filename> ps: questions asked on list should remain on list unless there are privacy isues or off list specifically requested. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
