Recently I have begun to get a great number of messages at boot-up which are about 'querying' scsi drives. I need to get a better look at the messages, but cannot find them in the logs in /var/log. Is there another place where bootup messages are recorded?

Thanks,

hth, Chuck

In addition to what this man page tells you, see if you have a file called /var/log/dmesg . Many (all?) distros these days dump the contents of the dmesg buffer here during boot/init ... handy because dmesg accesses a ring buffer, and later messages may have overwritten the boot-time ones you want to see.
