daniel sys-i686... contains all sys apps it's not build.tbz2. So vi is
there and joe also.

I never used -p to extrac the tarball here, but I can remember that I
had this syslog problem here too.
I don't know how I fixed it but it was a real banal thing.
Unfortunately I don't have the sys tarball here, ibiblio is still
unavailable and sourceforge gives me 4k
so I can not test it at the moment.
Jerry told me he had a problem with the kernel on that tarball. He ment
root gets allways mounted ro and he
must manualy remount, then things work.
I took a look into initscripts-install and svc-syslog/klog should not
have caused the syslog problem (well I'm
awake too long this day). I'll test it after a few hours of sleep.

Hmm, I remember a similar problem when /var had a 700 permission. I
tested it a second ago and I got that error report:

multilog: fatal: unable to open directory /var/log/syslog.d: access
denied.

This can be the cause.
