I had a look in var/log/dmesg of a good boot, and that stops logging when all the partitions are up. The command "dmesg" goes a little further and includes the agpgart and drm along with eth0 etc., but I can't run _that_ on the failed pre4 'cause it reboots instantly.
The last line of /var/log/messages before "restart" for the failed boot would normally be followed by messages on the start of agpgart followed by drm.
There is a little in the ksymoops, "start modprobe agpgart safemode=0" followed by the first line of the next boot.
I forgot to mention before, I'm running ext3, and the Matrox drivers from 28 Feb 02 (current) on essentially a RedHat 7.3, but with gcc 3.2
Any other logging I could set up? - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
