Well it could be, but I do not think Robert persists logs between reboots.
Maybe I'm wrong. So then assuming if what I say is true, you'd have to hope
the error is actually logged. Then the problem is that if you lose all
connectivity, how do you propose to see that information ?

With a serial debug cable, you'll be directly connected to a tty terminal,
so networking issues will not effect that. Which means not only can you get
additional debug info, but you can also log into the system, for further
troubleshooting if needed.

You can try to use:
root@wgd:~# more /var/log/messages
or
root@wgd:~# more /var/log/kern.log

But I do not think either of these will do you any good. You can check to
make sure though. Do keep in mind there will be a lot of info in there that
does not have anything to do with what you're looking for. So you may run
out of time before you get done reading through the files.

However, if you have another Linux machine, you could scp those files to a
remote system. If you are using Windows, there is a program called WinSCP I
believe that should allow you to traverse into the /var/log directory, and
copy those files out to your desktop.
