Bug#250843: install: /var/log/messages is not being tailed on console 3

[Goswin von Brederlow <brederlo@informatik.uni-tuebingen.de>]

Package: install
Severity: normal

Hi,

when something fails in D-I it tells me to check /var/log/messages or
virtual console 3. But on console 3 the last thing printed is he insmoding
of all the modules. After that nothing is shown anymore.

/var/log/messages on the other hand contains a lot more info.

Something is wrong with the tail on console 3. Killing the tail
(so it gets respawned) will show the end of messages.

MfG
