Hello,

Is there a way that I can view a system log file in Minix? In Linux, there is a command called dmesg that allows you to view kernel messages. In most Unix based operating systems, there is usually a syslog.log file. Is there a similar file in Minix?

Note: I already know about Shift+F5 to view the debug dumps and that's not what I'm looking for.


Thanks

I believe /var/log/messages is the closest. Unless you change the
configuration of the syslogd daemon in /etc/syslog.conf
