piCore Enable Syslog

To obtain logging in /var/log/messages you can enable syslog in the boot options.

• First mount the first partition (FAT) of the SD-card to the existing mount-point (/mnt/mmcblk0p1).
  • sudo mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /mnt/mmcblk0p1

• Next add the 'syslog' parameter to the command line options.
  • sudo vi /mnt/mmcblk0p1/cmdline.txt
    add:

    syslog

At the next reboot syslog should appear in /var/log/messages.
