Well, the authoritative document is "less /etc/init.d/bootmisc". ;-> I |
| 29 |
don't know if it is documented somewhere else. You should find: |

|
| 31 |
# Create an 'after-boot' dmesg log |
| 32 |
# |
| 33 |
touch /var/log/dmesg |
| 34 |
chmod 640 /var/log/dmesg |
| 35 |
dmesg > /var/log/dmesg |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
I just checked the stable baselayout (1.11.13-r1), and it seems to be there. |
