Subject: installation-guide: Location of the install logs is "unfindable"
Date: Tue, 11 Apr 2023 16:35:20 -0500
Source: installation-guide
Severity: minor
Hi,
Information on where the debian installer puts the installation logs
after a successfull install is buried in the section 6.3.9. Troubleshooting.
It's pretty hard to find out where the install logs are. At least if
you're googling about or reading the installation guide. (The
directory /var/log/installer/ is pretty self-explainatory but you have
to look there.)
I had planned to submit a patch with new index entries "logs,
installation" and "installation logs". But there is no index.
So I don't know the right way to fix this. I suppose the section heading
could be changed to "Troubleshooting and Logging". But that seems
clunky.
Regards,
Karl
