Help Knoppix boot messages
I've been using Knoppix for a while now. And was wondering how do I see the boot messages displayed by Knoppix.
I can see the messages, but after Knoppix has finished booting and has gone in to KDE. I can't find them.
How do I see what the boot messages were? Is there some sort of configuration or log file I need to see with vi editor?
I've tried "vi /var/log/messages" but that gives no output.
BTW this has been always from a Live CD for Knoppix. Knoppix has not been installed to the hard drive.
Thanks in advance.

The boot messages are derived from the linuxrc file which is held in zipped form as part of
minirt24.gz from /boot/isolinux on the CD. You'll find the codes that produce the boot messages within that.
These codes and messages can be altered if you decide to do a Knoppix remaster.
/var/log/messages, if it has been set up, I believe, usually just gives output regarding programs that have been or are running.
Regards,
Mark
