Description Oleg Drokin 2005-12-04 17:47:33 UTC
Description of problem:

mkdiskless script creates wrong syslog.conf file that makes syslog to complain
during boot similar to this message:

Starting system logger:   syslogd: unknown priority name "linuxhacker.ru"
[  OK  ]

The problem lies in fact that syslog expects priority to be in form of
facility.priority and '*' in that field is just not enough. '*.*' is expected.
