Booting of Containers [message #37355]

Hi,

Is there a way to see the booting messages (output of init-scripts etc.) when starting a container?

Moreover, it's possible to
a) Redirect it for a specific container to a /dev/ttyN, /dev/ptyN or similar
b) Redirect all boot-messages to a file?

Regards,
divB

Thank you.

I've read all. Unfortunately I don't understand the bug report because the referring forum post is in Russia.

However, it's not that hard important for me. If it would have worked I would have logged the startup messages to /var/log/bootlog in the containers or /var/log/startup-$VEID.log on the host.
