[Techtalk] logging problem at boot

Hi there,

I feel like I should be able to figure this out, but somehow it just 
isn't working for me...

When I boot up my machine, I see a bright red failed, and something 
about syncookies, but it flies by too fast to tell what it is all about. 
So I looked in the logs, but can't find anything. It seems that not 
everything that flies by at boot up is logged. I thought that all of the 
stuff that went by on the screen was logged to dmesg, but this doesn't 
seem to be the case. What can I do to ensure this message is saved 
somewhere when I boot?

thanks,
Maria
