Title: Syslogd does not autostart after reboot
Post by: tcroxx on August 23, 2016, 05:35:50 AM

Hello,

http://www.markn.org/blog/2014/12/tiny-core-linux-syslog.html
I followed the link above and added the word syslog at the end of the UUID but syslog service does not start (/var/log/messages is not created) unless I run syslogd command after a resart. I have tiny core without GUI and installed it from a core plus iso (so it is not a live boot)

What am I missing?

Thanks

Hi tcroxx, it might help for troubleshooting if you show the output of

Code: [Select]

version ; getBuild ; showbootcodes

Thanks for the rapid response Misalf. Following is the output

Code: [Select]

root@box:/usr/local/etc/bind# version ; getBuild ; showbootcodes
7.2
sh: getBuild: not found
initrd=/tce/boot/core.gz quiet BOOT_IMAGE=/tce/boot/vmlinuz

Judging by the link you posted, I suspect you added the boot codes on separate lines. Make it so that all boot codes (after APPEND) are on the same line.
Not sure why the  getBuild  function is not present in your shell but that may be normal.

Indeed! Three separate lines in the blog link lost me there (even though he has noted down in the instructions). Brought all to the same line and it works.
Thanks a lot :)
