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.

Working on restoring that function to the bootscripts, try the ones at
