Your kernel message buffer is too small to store the entire verbose boot sequence in memory before syslog can extract it. It's a circular buffer, so new entries overwrite the oldest ones. The line just before the "ACPI: MCFG" line was probably another ACPI line that happened to end in 8 and a close-paren. Adding this to your kernel and rebuilding should let you see the entire boot output. If something's still truncated, double it and try again. options MSGBUF_SIZE=65536 -- Dan Nelson dnelson_at_allantgroup.comReceived on Wed Jul 15 2009 - 17:59:12 UTC
