You can set
BOOTLOGD_ENABLE=Yes
in /etc/default/bootlogd. This should catch all output on the console
during most of the boot process and put it in a log file in /var/log.
For the earliest part of the boot process you would need to set up
logging to a serial console and use a second computer to record that.
However, sometimes the ScrollLock key is good enough to allow you to
read the stuff that is scrolling by.
