This has worked well for me, logging the early boot process that usually scrolls by on the screen. I use it on 8.3 and 9.1. I was surprised that it managed to log console stuff that occurred before syslogd was loaded... from syslog.conf # uncomment this to log all writes to /dev/console to # /var/log/console.log # touch /var/log/console.log and chmod it to mode 600 # before it will work console.info /var/log/console.log _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
