It goes to /var/log/messages, intentionally not to /var/log/boot.msg
(I know because I reported a bug on that)
Ah. Help me here. I seem to recall that the internal message buffer DURING boot gets written out somewhere.
Yes, with traditional systemv it was dumped to /var/log/boot.msg somehow, from memory.
My concern is that the /var file system may bot be mounted during boot :-/
True, and root is mounted read only at start, so that fsck can be done on it. But they do it, somehow. Systemd is a mystery to me. And policy kit, and udev and...
Try editing /etc/systemd/system.conf to turn it on :-)
What do you mean?
Well, like what are the entries you have at the moment? Is there something like
Default.
LogLevel=info
in there?
Let me see... [Manager] #LogLevel=info #LogTarget=syslog-or-kmsg #LogColor=yes #LogLocation=no #DumpCore=yes #CrashShell=no #ShowStatus=yes #SysVConsole=yes #CrashChVT=1 #CPUAffinity=1 2 #MountAuto=yes #SwapAuto=yes #DefaultControllers=cpu #DefaultStandardOutput=syslog #DefaultStandardError=inherit #JoinControllers=cpu,cpuacct All commented out, and no documentation comments, as other classical configuration files . What does that "LogLevel=info" do when activated? When I report a bug and they want of me a verbose log, they ask me to boot with these parameters: systemd.log_level=debug systemd.log_target=kmsg For me, that is such a nuisance that I created a separate entry on menu.lst with those parameters. It is a nuisance typing that at boot because my keyboard is not US, so that '=' and '_' change location and I have to find them by trial an error. - -- Cheers, Carlos E. R.
