No. Once the kernel reboots, the dmesg data is lost. Unless ofcourse you put this in /etc/conf.d/local.start: #!/bin/bash # /etc/conf.d/local.start /bin/dmesg > /var/log/dmesg Then you will at the least have a log of the current dmesg, which could be rotated. -- ****************************************************************************** Registered Linux User Number 185956 FSF Associate Member number 2340 since 05/20/2004 Join me in chat at #linux-users on irc.freenode.net Buy an Xbox for $149.00, run linux on it and Microsoft loses $150.00! 7:21am up 28 days, 21:46, 1 user, load average: 0.05, 0.07, 0.08 -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
