From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

got told to crosspost over here to reach more people:

https://kbin.social/m/linuxquestions/p/4631784

I don't know if and how crossposting functions in kbin/lemmy, so hopefully it'll work that way

I don't know what gets written to disk on which distro and which logs are just kept in memory. dmesg alone just shows the current boot. I think if you're doing it that way journalctl --dmesg --boot=-1 would be the correct command. That should do it.

@rufus
Alright, will try later and report back the outcome / pastebin if I can grab it

Good luck! 😀

(FYI: You can skip mentioning names that way, a direct reply will show up on Lemmy. And if you want to mention someone, you'd need to add the instance name for it to have an effect. i.e. @rufus@discuss.tchncs.de )

Yeah thank you, I really hope we‘ll get some progress.

(Not doing it on purpose, it‘s just how kbin behaves 😅 really thinking about dropping it and give lemmy a try. Originally decided for kbin because I wanted both worlds but since the behaviour is so strange …yeah 😉)
