Well, if you boot correctly, you can look at /var/log/dmesg. That gets
over-written each boot, though. That's at around line 843 of
/etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit: you could alter this file (carefully) to make it
save the log somewhere else, and earlier or later.

That's around line 220 of the same file. How are you at shell scripting?
Can you put echo statements in at suitable places, so we can see where
everything is hanging?

It looks like this is picked up from /etc/sysconfig/i18n by about line
20 of /etc/init.d/functions.
There are a number of ways of making sure that LANG gets set to en_US,
en_GB, or C.
Hope this helps,
