Description :
The Blogd daemon can be used as a replacement for Plymouth in situations where
a splash screen and/or usage of a frame buffer is unwanted. The Blogd is also

The blogd daemon writes out boot log messages to every terminal device used by

the system, it moves the log file to /var/log/boot.old and appends all log
messages upto to point at which the file systems becomes unavailable.
