So, sw2wolf, do you know what the diff(1) utility does?
Here is your assignment: - Power down the system using shutdown -ph now.
- Boot the system, & save the output of dmesg(8).
- Power down the system using halt -p.
- Boot the system, & save the output of dmesg(8).
- diff(1) the two dmesg(8) outputs against each other.
- Post the output of running diff(1) on these two files.
- Explain what the output means.
