I need detailed logs, not only the log for kernel. Like log file messages or boot.log in SuSE.

This would be nice to know.  I'm accustomed to having several logs to read through in the event of a problem....DSL doesn't log, so when something goes wrong you pretty much just have to guess what caused the problem.  The /var/log files are there, but they're all zeros.

Is there a way to enable logging, maybe via bootlocal?

Syslog its in there!
Add syslogd to your /opt/bootlocal.sh
If you install to hard drive, I start syslogd, on liveCD I do not.

Actually, I do start it on liveCD when one uses dialup PPP. That is how I show the messages during the ppp neogiation.
