--Nq2Wo0NMKNjxTN9z Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hi! One of my remote i386 machines preserves the dmesg buffer between reboots, and others not. What features cause this buffer to be preserved? I saw this on Alphas, and thought that this was caused by the "soft" reboot, where (probably) memory contents is not destroyed. But I have never seen this before of i386's: [...] Waiting (max 60 seconds) for system process `vnlru' to stop...stopped Waiting (max 60 seconds) for system process `bufdaemon' to stop...stopped Waiting (max 60 seconds) for system process `syncer' to stop...stopped syncing disks... done Copyright (c) 1992-2002 The FreeBSD Project.
