  Well, i guess i found the equivelent lines, for example:

  But it still doesn't have the phantom line i am looking for, which

  I'll find out what it says next time i boot.

 Does it say something about 'no config - file run kcontrol to generate
 one'? if so for lisa (mine did it and it took rebooting
 quite a few times and watching closely to get what it was all about.)

Boot messages are split across two logs. The initial boot messages are
written to /var/log/dmesg, and the later messages are written to
/var/log/boot.log. The latter is what you're looking for; every line
that appeared as [OK] on the screen ends with succeeded in the log.

You need to be root to view either of these files.

2004-01-10 Thread Eric Huff
I know i have seen this before, but can't find it in the archive.

Where can i find the boot messages displayed while booting (with the
[OK]'s and everything?  Toward the end there is a line saying i need
to configure something, but i can't read it fats enough, and when i
do a grep for configur in /var, i don't find it..

  /var/log/boot.log probably...

 /var/log/dmesg

I checked in both of those, but neither one has the list of OK and
FAILED services.

Oh, duh, i'll just do it interactively next time.

But it would be nice if it were output to a file...

Are you sure it isn't in boot.log?  You may have to scroll around a 
bit, but it should be there.

 thanks for the info,

I didn't.  I actually ended up not needing lisa so i uninstalled it. 
Even then though, it all looked like it was configured properly :-/

You can type in dmesg  dmesg.txt and you'll have a file in your home 
directory that you can look at.

You can type dmesg and see if any errors are in there, along with examining 
/var/log/messages.
