Go into /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions Find the section starting with boot_log and change it to this, also make sure logger is in the /binboot_log() { if [ -f /bin/logger ]; then /bin/logger -p local2.info -t bootlog "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" else return 0 fi }
Well, I made the change and /bin/logger is certainly there, but I haven't noticed any change. Looking closer at the functions script, it appears that all boot_log() does is print an error if there is an error that causes the boot to fail. What I want is everything that was echo'ed to the screen during boot to be echo'ed to a log file so that I can examine it after the boot is complete. From looking closer at the functions scripts and various scripts that call those functions, it appears that I would have to alter boot_mesg(), echo_ok(), echo_failure(), and echo_warning so that they echo to a file as well as to the screen. Is that indeed the case, or have I misunderstood what is going on? It would be nice if I could simply set a flag of somesuch to have the boot information logged to a file, but from what I can see, that isn't possible. - Jonathan Davis _______________________________________________ Clfs-support mailing list [email protected] http://lists.cross-lfs.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/clfs-support
