usertty (alert and emerg) and restart, but it didn't change anything. So the problem must be that init logs are different from other logs.
No, there are no differences. But if a program try to send a log message and /dev/log is not opened by syslog daemon, the program send it to the console. You can try it, if you stop syslog-ng and wait for log messages.
Is it possible for syslog-ng to intercept logs sent by init to the console ?
Yes, if you start syslog-ng earlyer than the program. In RedHat there are a tiny syslog daemon, that doesn't do anything except collecting log messages till real syslog daemon doesn't start. -- PGP ID 0x8D143771, /C5 95 43 F8 6F 19 E8 29 53 5E 96 61 05 63 42 D0 GPG ID ABA0E8B2, 45CF B559 8281 8091 8469 CACD DB71 AEFC ABA0 E8B2 Szeretem a Zsanit - SaSa
