To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG When the machine boots up, I get whole bunch of messages at console (Ctrl-Alt-F1) Some of it is in dmesg but the rest (with the daemon start info) is lost. Are they saved anywhere? If not, how do it put them in a log file so I can read them after the bootup process is done. BTW, is there a way to scroll the boot up messages at Ctrl-Alt-F1 console? Page Up and Page Down doesn't work. thanks __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
