dmesg(1)

dmesg(1) on OpenBSD (and I imagine on most other operating systems) shows the boot console messages, including
a list of the (probed) hardware, CPU clock speed etc.
 
But on leaf.dragonflybsd.org the dmesg(1) output is not the same. It seems to be inconsistent and seems to
be a garbled version of /var/log/messages.
 
I think this is wrong. DragonFlyBSD dmesg(1) should output the same as other operating systems, in
particular the probed hardware list which you get on the console when the computer boots.-- Sincerely,Robin Carey
