The problem is that the ring buffer used by the
kernel for storing that info is likely too small
for your needs.  I don't believe that this is a
configurable item so you'll probably have to
change your kernel sources and rebuild.  The
manifest constant in question is LOG_BUF_LEN found
in .../kernel/printk.c and it appears that it
must always be #defined to be a nice crisp power
of 2.  I see in my 2.2.17 kernel that the default
is 16384 so I'd recommend either 32768 or 65536.

Also, see the dmesg man page about making dmesg
request sizes match that buffer size.
