Re: boot log

Hi, i just googled "how to log boot error archlinux". I guess that's the reason you created this topic.

Maybe this can help you Disable clearing of boot messages

Re: boot log

I know that all system messages, before mounted / in rw
is not possible to log into /var/log/....

yesterday I read that in debian/ubuntu this is possible by adding YES on that file
but in arch I found a binary: bootlogd
but there isnot /etc/default/bootlogd

Re: boot log

ok

I have to run: bootlogd -l /var/log/boot

but where I insert this command ? (rc.local ? or as service? or into initrd?)

I have this command to be executed with the kernel at boot



thanks
