Can I move the startup of syslog-ng up to earlier in the boot sequence?
What's the earliest?

If you edit the "depend()" functions in your /etc/init.d/OTHER_PROCESSES you
should be able to make them depend on syslog starting.

Instead of editing every other init.d script, and keeping on top of it
with updates, there are two simpler possible alternatives.

1) Edit /etc/init.d/syslog-ng and add "before *" to the depend function.

2) rc-update del syslog-ng default && rc-update add syslog-ng boot.
