It also only contains the last 32K or so of boot up messages.. I still lose all of the first messages: steve@energistic:/home/steve> head /var/run/dmesg.boot 0x30 ata1-master: stat=0x20 err=0x20 lsb=0x20 msb=0x20 ata1-slave: stat=0x30 err=0x30 lsb=0x30 msb=0x30 ata1-master: stat=0x20 err=0x20 lsb=0x20 msb=0x20 ata1-slave: stat=0x30 err=0x30 lsb=0x30 msb=0x30 See what I mean? -Steve
