[CentOS] Boot.log Issue

[Michael Coffman]

This was broken in rhel5.   I think all flavors.   Just google 'rhel5
boot.log empty'.    It is fixed in rhel6 with the addition of plymouth.

>From the rhel5.3 releasenotes:

Boot-time logging to /var/log/boot.log is not available in Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 5.3
