Is this normal? My /var/log/messages file is zero bytes. I would like to have some spare disk space to use logging. Thoughts?

Yes. The base fs is squashfs, it's a read-only partition that's made for the base firmware, syslog and the like use ram /var should be mapped to /tmp.

I've seen this problem too, not all devices have such limited space though, so the /tmp mapping wholly to /var is not a universal fix (thus i'd imagine, it has not been merged to source tree).

add this to startup script to give syslog a writable target:

touch /tmp/messages
mount --bind /tmp/messages /var/log/messages

So can I mount a smb filesystem and use that for my tmp? What startup script do I add this to? /etc/init.d/rcs?

Thanks for your help
