and it turns out that it sure looks like the messages I'm trying to
capture are generated too early in the startup process to hit the

If all you need is watch at the messages at boot-time, then you could
press the "Scroll Lock" key, which will "pause" the boot process and
give you some time to read, then you can scroll with Shift+PageUp or
Shift+PageDown. When you're done you press "Scroll Lock" again and the
process goes on.
Yeah, but that's too easy :-)
Besides, it's nice to have a record.
