Though, if you have boot problems and never get up to that point, it won't do you much good. But did the older systems (that wrote the boot log file) write it as it went along, or rely on the system managing to boot far enough that it could flush a buffer to the disc, anyway? -- (Currently running FC4, occasionally trying FC5.)
