Re: [SAGE] Solaris boot Console logging??



Thanks! 

I have though that, but I already have my servers connected to ANNEX
Servers, which are supported by someone else, so reconfiguring it for
logging is out. I am looking for some way to capture the console just a
boot time and log it to a file, /var/adm/bootlog, and to be able to view
it via the serial connection (if possible). Kinda the way SUSE linux
does it. 

I know that i may be grasping at straws here?
