Title: Write Linux kernel output to file? Post by: devilfish on June 09, 2013, 05:48:21 AM Hey everyone,
I just finished my first LFS build (www.linuxfromscratch.org) and got it to boot. However, there seems to be a couple things that the kernel is not loading properly and I think that this may be causing some of my devices to not be recognized. I've been searching google and some other places but have not been able to find a definitive answer to my question -- Is there any way to write all of the kernel output at boot to a file? I notice that some things may not load at boot, but the messages fly by and I can't go back to read them. Hoping there is some command that I can pass through grub to make this happen. Thanks!

Post by: devilfish on June 09, 2013, 05:00:18 PM I suggest writing to the tech support subforums I was going to, but since this has nothing with any cryptocurrency at all I thought this would be a better place. I was just hoping that there was someone here that might stumble on it and have an answer. Did you look in /var/log/kern.log ? Yep, I've been looking through it but I think it logs way more than just the boot process and after going through the first 1500 lines or so I still haven't found an answer. It is probably a couple of pieces that I did not build into the kernel properly the first time I did it. Damn laptops with all their vendor specific crap. I'll probably just end up having to build a catch-all kernel from something like archlinux then finding out which modules load so I can then build them into my own kernel. Thanks for the tip though |
