All,
It looks like RHEL 6 no longer uses initlog, which used to log to local7 by default.

Instead, it looks like plymouth is used, which seems to be hardcoded to log to /var/log/boot.log.

I've grep'ed through most of the filesystem on a RHEL 6 box, and can't seem to find anything that is set to log to local7.

This seems to be a good reason to remove to following from /etc/rsyslog.conf on my RHEL 6 boxes:
local7.*                                                /var/log/boot.log

Doesn't this sound reasonable?

Mike
