kernel log using dmesg

[ivan2116]

I was asked to do the following, but I have no clue what to do because I am new in Linux world:

"Could you provide:
kernel log(using "dmesg") for those commands:
insmod dhd.ko
dhd -i eth1 download...
ifconfig eth1 ...
wl mpc..."

The kernel log is in the dmesg file in the directory /var/log, so you can search it for those commands with grep:

cd /var/log

grep -i "insmod dhd.ko" dmesg

grep -i "dhd -eth1 download" dmesg

grep -i "ifconfig eth1" dmesg

grep -i "wl mpc" dmesg

Alternative method is to use dmesg:

dmesg | grep -i "insmod dhd.ko"

dmesg | grep -i "dhd -eth1 download"

dmesg | grep -i "ifconfig eth1"

dmesg | grep -i "wl mpc"

Hope that helps.

Hello and Welcome!

hagfish52 gave great advice... but I'm hoping that this wasn't for a homework question, as those are against Forum Rules.
