Should be kept in a subdir in there, from:

http://git.sugarlabs.org/projects/sugar/repos/mainline/blobs/cbd0509f4bcfe1b3e52f8898b1cb83d522337ab8/src/logsmanager.py#line25

But anyway, the failure to read the DS would be in the first boot
where the journal appears empty, not in the boot where the DS index
got corrupted.
