[Pkg-sysvinit-devel] Bug#597467: sysvinit-utils: [BOOTLOG] All messages are not saved

[Frédéric MASSOT]

Package: sysvinit-utils
Version: 2.88dsf-12
Severity: normal


Hi,

There are messages that appears on the console during
the boot which are not recorded anywhere.

In the log file "/var/log/boot" it is only the messages
of starts of rc scripts, the warning and errors are not
recorded.

I see messages on the console that correspond to
rc scripts, but they are neither in the log file
"/var/log/boot" or syslog.

Below the contents of the file "/var/log/boot",
from what I see on the screen there are missing
messages from udev and other rc scripts.
