I no longer have a /var/log/boot although I remember having one, what does its presence depend on?

oh.
Maybe when I dist-upgraded to unstable it changed. What do you suppose the method used to log my boot msgs is now?
/var/log/boot is created by bootlogd from initscripts / sysvinit, but recently (since 2.85-8) this logging is turned off by default, see the changelogs for details. You can turn it on again by editing /etc/default/bootlogd.
HTH, Fl o
None of that exists in Woody 3.0r1. And you cannot use apt-file with CD's. So a possibility is changing sources.list to Woody, getting rid of the CD entries, doing an update and then using apt-file and then putting everything back again. A lot of work to find out where bootlogd went ;-)
