So basically, I need to boot, then immediate check /var/log/dmesg ?

Clarification:

You can either:
-- boot and then immediately type
   /sbin/dmesg
which is a utility that shows the latest ???K of kernel messages, which should be all the boot messages if you do it before there are too many other messages from
  the kernel
OR
-- boot and anytime before the next boot type
   cat /var/log/dmesg
or whatever scheme you use to look at a text file. This shows the file that
  "remembers" what "/sbin/dmesg" produced shortly after boot.

If you are familiar with shell scripts, there is a script that runs shortly after boot that
does something like
   /sbin/dmesg  >  /var/log/dmesg
