[SunHELP] dmesg

[Scanlan, Brian (5188)]

Er, dmesg is on Solaris. :)

man dmesg(1m)! I think it's in /usr/sbin...

However, dmesg output displays a cyclical kernel buffer,
it might actually get written over by loads of messages -
Use /usr/platform/platform-name/sbin/prtdiag, where
platform-name is the output of "uname -i".

man prtdiag(1m) for more details. ;)

Brian.

Hi,
I am running Solaris 8 and I need to know if there is a command that I 
can use to display the bootup messages by the server.  I know that on 
other unix machines the dmesg command can be used.  When I issue that 
command now I get recent system messages.  What I am really after is the 
memory detected and the processor speed (mhz), etc ...those kind of 
system messages.  Thanks.
Shain
