#!/bin/sh
# syslogd — wrapper that ensures /var/adm/messages exists before launch.
#
# syslogd opens its log targets (per /etc/syslog.conf) at startup; if any
# named file doesn't exist, it logs an error and skips that target. On
# Hammerhead the default conf points logs at /var/adm/messages, but the
# bare BE we boot from has only rotated archives (messages.0, messages.1)
# — not messages itself. Pre-create it so syslogd's startup is clean.
