Error 'ifconfig: SIOCIFREATE2' not in dmesg

On boot I get the msg
ifconfig: SIOCIFCREATE2: Device not configured
which, on Googling I see has something to do with wi-fi. It was only by chance that I saw the msg whilst booting... had to boot several times to try and catch it because it doesn't appear in dmesg.

Sould I expect this to be recorded somewhere?
 
As it should be as dmesg(8) shows only the messages coming from kernel, by default. You can specify '-a' for it to include the messages printed to console.

Check /var/log/messages (and other files usually in /var/log depending on your syslog.conf).
