Re: Dmesg is not showing whole boot list

Or look in your /var/log/kern.log file instead of asking dmesg. dmesg just dumps the kernel ring buffer which is of finite size. The entire contents should be logged to /var/log/kern.log.

Hello,

maybe this si a wrong list to ask, bug after boot, dmesg shows that few lines at the beginning are missing.

Is there any option I can increase to get full dmesg?

Try increasing CONFIG_LOG_BUF_SHIFT and recompile. That's likely the
source of your problem.
