If you just want to dig up log files, you can always boot from DVD in rescue mode and mount the filesystems and poke around to see whats there (or boot a live CD and do the same). Unfortunately, some information doesn't seem to go anywhere other than the console (things like kernel walkback traces). I've only ever been able to capture them by rigging up a 2nd computer with a null modem cable and booting the first with serial console setup on kernel boot options. If there is something more convenient than using a serial console to capture everything that happens during boot, I'd love to find out how to do it :-). -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
