Under Fedora 14 and earlier, boot-time messages get stored in /var/log/boot.log. Things like "Welcome to Fedora" and "Starting udev:" would appear there. After I upgraded to Fedora 16, this no longer works. Nothing gets written to /var/log/boot.log. All the output from systemd simply gets sent to the console, where it scrolls off the screen and is lost. My /etc/rsyslog.conf file still contains the same old setting as before: # Save boot messages also to boot.log local7.* /var/log/boot.log But it doesn't do any good. In particular, systemd's output goes directly to the console and not to the log. Is this deliberate? Or is it a bug in systemd? Is there any way to capture these messages?
