Hi list,
Bootlogd was fine in sarge but when I updated to etch about a month
ago it doesn't capture nearly as much as it used to. Judging by what
I'm able to see in dmesg, about 75% of the messages appear in dmesg
and the last 25% appear in /var/log/boot. In /etc/rcS.d there is
S05bootlogd.
I want to start tracking testing instead of stable. Attached (since
it's long) is the output of aptitude -s dist-upgrade. Why are so
many things being removed? Why are so many things being held back
when updated versions are clearly shown? (I've never manually set
anything to hold.) Why
apt-get turns out to be mostly the same. I started using aptitude
since I thought it was supposed to replace apt-get when sarge went
stable. Now both apt-get and aptitude want to remove aptitude. It's
a hint I think. Thanks everyone for the advice.

For Debian 3.1, check the file /etc/default/bootlogd and set the
variable in it:
BOOTLOGD_ENABLE=Yes
After booting, the file /var/log/boot is available. It might contain what
