in some distro's it's in
/var/log/boot.log
/var/log/boot.log.1
/var/log/boot.log.2
etc.

the other log files in /var/log/ are definitely interesting to peruse, too

have fun!

Hello All,

I am curious as to what the boot log is called and how to scroll back and forth through it.

If I could scroll back and forth through my boot log I believe that I could learn a little bit about how my computer boots into Linux and could perhaps trim the boot daemons a little for security purposes and use only the necessary boot daemons for my purposes. I seem to remember Szemir saying something to that effect on one of his presentations on security and common sense.
