[Question] - Creation of ntbtlog.txt

[DragonFly]

I posted this question in the appropriate sub-forum (Xpize) since it first occurred when using this piece of software. Didn't get any answer, so I'll try a more general approach.

This is my question:

Xpize adds the /bootlogo switch in the boot.ini file in order to display the boot.bmp. Now, I don't know if this is a side effect of XPize but now an ever growing ntbtlog.txt is also created during every reboot.

If I would like to manually create an ntbtlog.txt, I would have to add the /bootlog switch in the boot.ini file.

Could it be that the /bootlogo switch is mistakenly read as the /bootlog switch by the Ntldr, or does the /bootlogo switch automatically invoke the creation of an ntbtlog.txt?

I personally think the creation of the ntbtlog.txt (or any log file) is only needed for debug purposes and is not needed at every bootup, unless the user wants it to.
