trying to boot to logfile

[teebolek]

In an effort to try to capture the boot process to the logfile I'm trying to specify the "syslog" bootcode.
My GRUB command list looks as follows:
kernel /boot/vmlinuz
syslog
initrd /boot/core.gz

but I'm getting

    syslog
    Error 27: Unrecognized command

What am I doing wrong?

Boot options go on the kernel line.
Also, this is not a core issue.

Thanks. Sorry, my first  time here.
