No? Did you look in /var/log/boot.msg?

Yes. It contains some of the output, but I'm not sure it's complete
-- it certainly isn't "the same" -- i.e. boot.msg contains any other kernel
output as well as specificcontent (like full argument lists of each service
-- a bit over 400 characters each.
It is possible the error messages are all in boot.msg, but its just
hard to see them buried in the other kernel-log messages and the different
formatting used to relate information (for example, color red for failures).
I'll make a somewhat educated guess.
The startup scripts can run in parallel, but I think the output is
delayed, and printed to the screen at the end of each script, or earlier
if a timeout ends first. Thus, they appear ordered in the screen.
However, the log logs them in the same order as they are generated,
intercalated.
To do what you want you have to read the documentation of whatever they
use to capture those messages, at a time the filesystem is not fully
mounted (thus stored in memory), and see if it allows dumping in order to
another file. If not, perhaps you can code it.
I can't be more precise, didn't study it that much :-)
