startup log

Does someone knows how can I see the output that Linux produces when booting.

I can see that it tries to initialize ISDN services, though I don't have ISDN. Does anyone know how do I get rid of it?

Thanks in advance.

dmesg | less

From ->
$ man dmesg

Code:

DESCRIPTION
       dmesg is used to examine or control the kernel ring buffer.

       The  program  helps  users to print out their bootup messages.  Instead of copying the messages by hand,
       the user need only:
              dmesg > boot.messages
       and mail the boot.messages file to whoever can debug their problem.
