The man page reveals the following: NAME dmesg - display the system message buffer SYNOPSIS dmesg [-a] [-M core] [-N system] DESCRIPTION Dmesg displays the contents of the system message buffer. The options are as follows: -a Show all data in the message buffer. This includes any syslog records and /dev/console output. -M Extract values associated with the name list from the specified core instead of the default /dev/kmem. -N Extract the name list from the specified system instead of the default /kernel. Would someone please help me to get the required info? TIA /wiZZ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
