Brian, the machine locks so there is no normal way to preserve the syslog, not even getting to a console. Restarting loses all the information of the Live session. So what I tried was inserting a USB stick, unmounting it, remounting it rw sync, moving syslog to the stick, and symlinking /var/log/syslog to the syslog on the USB stick. Attached is the result but nothing stands out to me, at least not at the end of the log. It did not seem to capture anything. Was the method wrong or should a different log be chosen?
