If your getting HD errors, then it is not because of the missing 'syslog'
file. It's more likely the missing file is the 'result of' the HD errors.
That file simply acts as a receptacle for vaious system messages. You can
try re-creating it with - ' > syslog' from within it's home directory, then
try re-booting. You must be logged in as root to do this.
I would certainly make sure I have a good, verified backup of everything
that's important before doing anything. If you have HDD errors, things can
go from bad to worse, and you certainly want to be able to recover.
Good luck.
