Didn't do it. I changed LOG_BUF_LEN from 16384 to 65536. I got:
Jan 20 14:17:09 krypton syslogd 1.3-3: restart.
Jan 20 14:17:10 krypton kernel: klogd 1.3-3, log source = /proc/kmsg started.

You can see it starts in the middle of disk detection.
I then changed LOG_BUF_LEN to 131072:
Jan 20 14:23:52 krypton syslogd 1.3-3: restart.
Jan 20 14:23:53 krypton kernel: klogd 1.3-3, log source = /proc/kmsg started.

Jan 20 14:23:54 krypton kernel: - noisy kbd cable?

A coupel more lines, but in the middle of the noisy keyboard cable
message... Nowhere is all that cool APIC/MP boot stuff...
