Hi.
I want to put little messages in the various boot scripts (like in /etc/rc.d/rc.modules) so that I can track the boot process. I would like these messages to appear someplace where I can review them, such as in dmesg. So far, I have simply put
echo "blah blah"
into scripts and the messages appear on the screen during boot-up but not in either dmesg (or /var/log/messages) which is where I would like them.
Does someone know how to do this? I would really appreciate a hint on this one.
Thanks much in advance!
Try: echo "blah blah" >> /var/log/boot.log or echo "blah blah" >> /var/log/messages.
