hi tinypoodle,
i booted with syslog and the boot-messages reported a started syslogd and klogd.
Sep 26 06:44:28 box syslog.info syslogd started: BusyBox v1.20.2
Sep 26 06:44:28 box user.notice kernel: klogd started: BusyBox v1.20.2 (2012-08-07 01:31:01 UTC)
under /var/log are just these three files...
root@box:/var/log# ls
autologin messages wtmp
are there more log-files at some place?
are these additional informations provided by syslogd and klogd included in /var/log/messages?
thank you for your help.
