Description: daemon to log boot messages
bootlogd logs all messages printed to the system console during system boot,
and records those messages to a logfile.
.
Note that not all init systems print messages to the system console,
so that the logfile may remain empty; this is the case with systemd
(the default init system). Try "journalctl -b" instead.
