It would appear that on May 8, Luciano Miguel Ferreira Rocha did say: > The startup of services is recorded in /var/log/messages.

Thanks Luciano, the problem with /var/log/messages would be that While I saw briefly some warnings the 1st time I booted the new FC1, I have know idea which starting service to search for and didn't find anything that looked like an error in the messages file. Since I didn't see them on subsequent boots, I'm guessing the warnings didn't matter this time. Thanks for the suggestion. I'm going to try Mathew's suggestion first though. Else, I guess I could live with only 5 console screens. -- | --- ___ | <0> <-> Joe (theWordy) Philbrook | ^ J(tWdy)P | ~\___/~ <<jtwdyp@xxxxxxxx>>
