Hi,
I wanted to see my original bootup messages again. So I typed
dmesg, but all I got were 'arplookup' lines.
I'm puzzled, where the bootup messages have gone?
I have two files in /var/log: dmesg.today and dmesg.yesterday
Both files are completely filled with this line:
arplookup 147.46.50.254 failed: host is not on local network
Nothing else.
How can I see the original bootup messages from the kernel?
Do I have to reboot for that :( ?
Regards,
Rob.
