I have two Debian installations. One of them is upgraded from 1.3 to 2.0. On this system the /var/log/messages contains the boot messages. On the other system, I installed a brand new Debain 2.0 distribution (no upgrade). On this system, I only see the minimal mark messages, but _no_ boot messages. Next thing I did is to compare the files in the init.d directory of both systems. Apart from the network numbers, the files were identical. So I am afraid the problem is more subtle (and I still don't have any clue). Bye, -- Benno
