logs
 
hi.
when I turn on my computer and linux is loading,
I see some messages that some of them are "OK" and some of them are "FAILED".
Does linux save them somewhere in hard disk.
I'd like to find them and read them.
but where?
thanks
Anoosh

You should find these along with some more detail in /var/log/messages
You can also see kernel boot messages (generally from before the runlevel messages you're talking about) with the command
Code:

dmesg | less

Odd, mine doesn't.
