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 don't 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.
