The command "dmesg -H" is used to display the kernel messages in a human-readable format.
Here's a breakdown of the command:
- "dmesg" is a command-line utility used to display kernel ring buffer messages. The kernel ring buffer contains various system messages, including information about hardware, drivers, and other system events.
- "-H" is an option that formats the output in a human-readable format, specifically using more readable timestamps, which can be helpful for better understanding the messages.
When you run the "dmesg -H" command, it will display the kernel messages in a more user-friendly format, making it easier to comprehend and analyze any system-related issues or events that have occurred.
