Hi,

The usual system logs such as /var/log/messages are not being saved.
/var/log/messages does not exist, but /var/log/messages.0 (the old rotated
version) does.

I've tried a 'tail /dev/klog' and it returns 'device busy'. syslogd -dv isn't
returning anything useful either.

I'd be very grateful for any suggestions :)
Matt
