This is fixed in Jaunty. The bootmisc.sh file is no longer used to save the
kernel messages. I tested by renaming /var/log/dmesg and rebooting without the
splash screen. No errors were seen and once booted dmesg had been recreated by
the system.
If others can confirm that this remains an issue in hardy and intrepid this bug
can be nominated for fixing in those releases.
** Changed in: sysvinit (Ubuntu)
Status: Confirmed => Fix Released
