SuSE's /var/log/boot.msg, which has no Mandrake counterpart, bears little resemblance to Mandrake's /var/log/boot.log, and has no value for this diagnostic exercise. I need to get SuSE to generate a similar file to do me any good.
Did you try dmesg, it may display what you want.
No. It overflows the screen, and also lacks the timestamps of boot.log that I use to narrow down points of interest. Where does its output come from?
dmesg | less No idea where the output comes from, possibly it's a specially formatted version of boot.msg, but I really don't know. Scott -- POPFile, the OpenSource EMail Classifier http://popfile.sourceforge.net/ Linux 2.6.8-24.13-default x86_64
