Is there a way to set it so that all the messages can be saved to a file instead? --- Dan Nelson <dnelson@allantgroup.com> wrote: > In the last episode (Jul 23), Ed Yu said: > > When the machine boots up, I get whole bunch of > > messages at console (Ctrl-Alt-F1) Some of it is in > > dmesg but the rest (with the daemon start info) is > > lost.
