Just to debug this issue, make /var/log and /var/run memory disks. /var/run 
too cause of the socket that syslog uses. That at least will give you the 
ability to manually transcribe the logs in worst case, best case being to save 
them to an USB stick you plug in after resume or copy of the network if bge 
ever comes back up.
