empty boot log

[Peter McAlpine <peter@mcalpinecomputing.net>]

Hello,

I recently deleted "/var/log/boot", and then did a "touch
/var/log/boot". However, I have rebooted multiple times and the log
remains empty. Does anyone have ideas where I could start looking for
solutions to this problem?

ls excerpt:
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root            0 Jan  5 16:11 boot
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root         3.6K Jan  1 11:37 boot.0
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root         1.1K Dec 25 19:32 boot.1.gz
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root         1.1K Dec 24 06:31 boot.2.gz
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root         1.1K Dec 23 22:01 boot.3.gz
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root         1.1K Dec 23 18:42 boot.4.gz

Thanks in advance,
Peter
