Steve,

I don't know logsave, but all Linux distros I know come with "script".  
Before installing anything I do "script install.$(date +%Y%m%d)" to 
start a log file with the current date, then I run the install script 
and then I hit Ctrl-D (or type exit) to stop logging.  I then peruse the 
output to make sure I didn't miss any error.
